How to set default entry in GRUB2 on EFI with FEDORA 20

Question

I have Windows 8 dual booting with Fedora 20. Linux is the first one Windows is the third. I want windows to be the default. I am using instructions from GRUB 2.

grep "submenu\|^\menuentry" /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg | cut -d "'" -f2

gives

Fedora, with Linux 3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64
Fedora, with Linux 0-rescue-62ce70aff0cf43989df5b1dfd30caf79
Windows Boot Manager

when I set the default entry by not recommended way:

set default="2"

Windows becomes default entry. But recommended way

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
grub2-set-default "Windows Boot Manager"
grub2-editenv list

gives

saved_entry=Windows Boot Manager

but after

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg

The default entry is again Linux.

What I am doing wrong?

Solution

I set

GRUB_DEFAULT="Windows Boot Manager"

in /etc/default/grub and it works.
