mxgrub/mxgrub: Insert module *all_video*
With a system booted from UEFI, starting the Linux kernel from GRUB, GRUB outputs error: not suitable video mode found booting in blind mode and no Linux messages can be seen. Jordan_U’s answer from #grub@irc.freenode.net: > Are you using a manually written grub.cfg or one made by > grub-mkconfig? > > If the former, add "insmod all_video" to your grub.cfg. That will > allow grub to set up a video mode to then pass on to linux. IIRC, the > text mode for UEFI is only intended for use by bootloaders, and thus > should not be used by linux. I think that means that if grub doesn't > pass a video mode to linux (which it needs video modules to be able to > do) then you won't get early printk from the kernel, messages will > only be displayed once native graphics drivers and KMS kicks in.
