dann frazier 478e54b738 grub-reboot: Warn when "for the next boot only" promise cannot be kept
The "for the next boot only" property of grub-reboot is dependent upon
GRUB being able to clear the next_entry variable in the environment
block. However, GRUB cannot write to devices using the diskfilter
and lvm abstractions.

README

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader.
GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more
robust, more powerful, and more portable.

See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the
GRUB 2 data and program files.

Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information.
The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>.

More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual,
accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2.

There are a number of important user-visible differences from the
first version of GRUB, now known as GRUB Legacy. For a summary, please
