You need to export any variable in /etc/default/grub which you add yourself. I.e. export GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_DEBUG="false" in /etc/default/grub should work, but I haven't tested this yet. For the variables we support, we do it in /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig. But these changes get overwritten then with the next package upgrade. Also note that your attached files have .ucf-old respectively .dpkg-old and so don't have any effect. grub-mkconfig ignores even all /etc/grub.d/*.dpkg* files even if they're executable (+x). -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
