I have had a functioning system on wheeze using grub2. I did an
upgrade to Jessie according to the debian docs.
Now when I boot my system I simply get a black screen after the POST
screen - there's no GRUB screen or any hint of it.
I had a similar problem with a laptop. I resolved it (finally) with a
BIOS upgrade.
Sadly this problem started AFTER I upgraded my BIOS. I have tried
installing debian (AMD64) from scratch and am unable to boot from this
either. I can't find any way to downgrade the BIOS and there is only one
BIOS upgrade file on the Gigabyte website.
I have managed to make my system bootable by installing LILO. Could
somebody let me know if this is likely to be obsoleted any time? I haven't
received any indication that it will be.
