Public bug reported: Binary package hint: grub
This is grub version 0.97-29ubuntu3. There doesn't seem to be any way to configure update-grub not to put the 'quiet' keyword into the menu.lst stanzas for any non-recovery kernel. There's no menu.lst manpage, so the only documentation seems to be in the menu.lst file itself, and there's nothing about this there. Also, the update-grub script says: if [ ! -n "$recovery_desc" -a x"$supports_quiet" = x"true" ]; then echo "quiet" >> $buffer fi ie if this isn't a recovery kernel and grub supports the 'quiet' keyword then you always get it. The quieten-grub spec (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuietenGrub) lists "user always wants to boot without 'quiet'" as one of its use cases, so this ought to be possible somehow... ** Affects: grub (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- no way to configure update-grub not to set 'quiet' option in menu.lst non-recovery stanzas https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137136 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
