Of course. One possible temporary solution would be to insert all customization variables in 10_linux and other files in /etc/default/grub with no value no and a simple comment over it (all the common used variables). I can try to do it if you want, but I've just discovered grub2 so it's quite risky.

You mean that it > falls back to text mode, or that it won't install/boot at all? Well, when I tried, I had a graphical menu with no entry. I had to type 'ESC' and try to find what was wrong (that's where I discover insert lvm). If you wan't me to try again somes things, I can. I think it disable font but try to load graphic mode without font. Is it possible ? > > Thanks all for your work.

I'm waiting for #459352 So I just need to wait until the next upload of debian-desktop that's it no ? black color is better for text of course :-). But I'm not debian-desktop developper. I'm not DD, so I can't upload it :-/ Cheers, -- Martin Braure de Calignon
