I modified the grub_load_normal_mode function in kern/main.c to print out
the value of grub_errno after calling 'grub_dl_load ("normal")'. The
result was 11, which corresponds to GRUB_ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE.
I think it would be a good idea to modify the code to print out a
description of the error at this point, or at least to display the error
number, so that users know why they are being booted into the rescue
shell.
