That didn't help (and, noticing a typo in your patch, neither did adding GRUB_BUTTON_CMOS_CLEAN=prettyplease).

Anyway, thanks for trying. --Paul Vojta, vo...@math.berkeley.edu _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
