Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub2
Hi with recent grub-pc I get on start a fast repeating error message
saying that there is an syntax error and there is nothing I can do to
stop it. I had to boot a Livecd and edit the /boot/grub/grub.cfg to make
grub work again, here is a piece from it with my changes:
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ###
set default=0
set timeout=5
set root=(hd0,2)
## Causes Syntaxerror on startup
#if font (hd0,2)/usr/share/grub/unicode.pff ; then
# set gfxmode=640x480
# insmod gfxterm
# insmod vbe
# terminal gfxterm
#fi
### END /etc/grub.d/00_header ###
I'm using a Sony Vaio SZ2M-B with an Intelchipset (Core Duo, GMA950)
