Previous Linux versions at grub

Descrición

After upgrading kernel, Grub seems to join older kernels under only one entry in the grub menu called "Previous Linux versions".

I think that it would be important to rename it to "Previous Linux-Libre versions" or just "Previous kernel versions" or something more generic like "Previous Trisquel versions".

I do agree. I think "Previous kernel versions" would be appropriate. One might have a different kernel package.

Confirmed as present in Toutatis, not present in Belenos.

However, as per [1] 'Linux' is the proper name for Torvalds et al's kernel and we should therefore use and credit it as such. So 'Previous Linux versions' in grub is correct to FSF canon.
