Hello maintainers of the netinst image,

The issue:
As seen on openQA [1], the GRUB menu for the arm64 netinst image (taken from the daily builds [2]) does not use the graphical mode, but text mode instead.

Some sub-menus assume that the graphical mode is active, but issue an error message: 'error: no video mode activated.' (e.g. 'Accessible dark contrast installer menu...')

Expected:
GRUB uses the graphical version of the boot menu.


During the miniDebCamp 2024 in Hamburg, ema showed that (at least for the live-build images) GRUB is able to use the graphical mode correctly. As a side note, the graphical installer also shows properly, so there appears to be no problem in using the graphical mode.

With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
