Seth,

I used a JavaVt220 emulator before, and saw the problem first with the install (after grub: black-on-black). Seems that my emulator ignored the ESC c. When I put that in. It worked fine.
I'm not sure what is doing that (I have verbose mode on in grub)
This comes right after the grub menu:

^[cmodule /platform/i86pc/kernel/amd64/unix: text at [0xfffffffffb800000, 0xfffffffffb96e533] data at 0xfffffffffc000000^M module /kernel/amd64/genunix: text at [0xfffffffffb96e538, 0xfffffffffbc3603f] data at 0xfffffffffc0bbbc0^M

The "ESC c" does the trick, but where does it come from, the kernel in verbose ??

What do you mean by "does the trick" ? What do you mean by you "put that in"? ESC[c is just a request to report the device code (i.e. get terminal type); I wouldn't expect it to change any output attributes.


No, I mean <ESC>c, NOT <ESC>[c        ---> or "^[c" in vim

A test on your gnome-terminal:

echo "\033[30;40m"; echo "black on black"; read; echo "\033c"; echo "normal again"
