Hi,
I have a working grub2 installation with an inconvenience. I want a text based
boot. I want to see all of the kernel messages scroll by. I want a command
prompt and not X. I edited my /etc/defaults/grub to remove the quiet and
splash options. Yes I did the update-grub2. Still no text. I added text to
end of the kernel line and I get is a black screen. The system is responsive
to Ctrl-Alt-Delete so I know the system is working properly. I removed text
and added nomodeset and the system boots to a graphical login. I gave up on
changing the various grub files to fit my needs and rerunning update-grub2.
Here is my grub.cfg.
set default=1
set timeout=30
# terminal console
# set gfxpayload=1440x900x32
set gfxpayload=keep
set menu_color_normal=yellow/blue
set menu_color_highlight=black/light-gray
menuentry "Linux 3.2.6 EFI" {
set root=(hd1,2)
linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.6 root=UUID=d5304ad3-6937-413b-9497-2fe1f60f6635
ro
initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.2.6
}
menuentry "Windows 7" {
set root=(hd0,1)
chainloader (${root})/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi
}
menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+)" {
set root=(hd1,2)
linux16 /boot/memtest86+.bin
}
menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+, serial console 115200)" {
set root=(hd1,2)
linux16 /boot/memtest86+.bin console=ttyS0,115200n8
}
Is this a grub problem or a Ubuntu problem?
Thanks,
