for example

I want to know if the kernel - 3.10.0-327.18.2.el7.x86_64 is located in index=0 or index=1 or index=2 etc

is it possible to verify what is the index number? on linux 7

uname -r
3.10.0-327.18.2.el7.x86_64



grubby --info=ALL

$ sudo grubby --info=ALL | grep -B1 '^kernel=' | grep -B1  `cat /proc/cmdline | awk -v RS=" " '/^BOOT_IMAGE=/ {print substr($0,12)}'`$ | head -n1
index=0
