ok, I am running fedora 22, along with ubuntu & Windows 10. a new kernel
got installed last night, and I rebooted, but grub doesn't show it, and
still defaults to the ubuntu OS. I am new to this efibootmgr, and google
is letting me down.. This is all new to me, and I am having a problem
understanding what I need to do now...

#df -h
/dev/sda10       46G  8.3G   36G  19% /
/dev/sdb6       154G   80G   67G  55% /home
/dev/sda8        95M  9.5M   86M  11% /boot/efi


grub2-mkconfig works, but grub2-install /dev/sda gives me an error
grub2-install /dev/sda
grub2-install: error: /usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi/modinfo.sh doesn't exist.
Please specify --target or --directory.

is there a good manual somewhere for efibootmgr??
I thought when a new kernel was installed, grub would automagically add
it... not with efi?
