Hello, I started to play with GRUB_TERM_PPAGE/NPAGE in normal/menu.c and I've had a problem: they was working in opposite way than I've expected. Tracing the problem deeper than swapping GRUB_TERM_PPAGE constant by GRUB_TERM_NPAGE, I have found that this values comes from

[PATCH] Warning if grub.cfg not found

Hi, I send attached a patch that shows a warning when Grub it's falling back to the command line if grub.cfg is not found (so user knows why the menu is not showed). I'm not 100% that this is the best way to handle it, mainly because I'm not used about the Grub execution workflow. The changes
