<para>The menu will not be shown by default (the menu can still be shown by
pressing and holding a key during boot). One of the entries with files with a
name starting with <literal>01234567890abcdef1234567890abdf0-</literal> will be
selected by default. If more than one entry matches, the one with the highest
priority will be selected (generally the one with the highest version number).
The editor will be disabled, so it is not possible to alter the kernel command
line.</para>
