Hello,
GRUB as found in the 0.13.0 installation image hangs after printing the
four letters “GRUB” in console mode on a pre-UEFI Dell Poweredge 2950
server (something that’s roughly ten years old.)
I built an image where GRUB’s graphical terminal output was disabled:
(grub-configuration
(device "/dev/sda")
(terminal-outputs '(console)))
… but that didn’t help.
Conversely, Debian’s ‘grub-pc’ 2.02~beta3-5 package doesn’t have this
problem. Debian’s ‘grub.cfg’ prologue is similar to ours so I suspect
the problem is in GRUB itself. Debian has “quite a few” patches for
GRUB though:
<https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-grub/grub.git/tree/debian/patches>.
Has anyone experienced this?
Thanks,
Ludo’.

Given that we're past v1.3.0 now, is this still relevant?
Thanks,

No it’s not; closing!
