Package: grub2 Version: 2.02~beta2-17 Severity: normal The intended behavior of the /etc/grub.d/10_linux script is to add menu entries (menuentry) to boot the linux partitions.
Before a certain version of grub, having a password set inhibited the ability to edit entries, and enter in advanced menus. After a certain version, it also blocked booting any entry. To maintain backward compatibility, and given that there is no standard mechanism to manage passwords and authentication in /etc/default and script, basic entries should be created with --unrestricted option, so they can boot without a password. This way, it is the responsibility of users of authentication to edit scripts as necessary, and doesn't break existing systems by suddenly requiring a password at boot (think about headless systems). This should be as simple as changing: ... else echo "menuentry '$(echo "$os" | grub_quote)' ${CLASS} \$menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-$boot_device_id' {" | sed "s/^/$submenu_indentation/" fi to: else echo "menuentry --unrestricted '$(echo "$os" | grub_quote)' ${CLASS} \$menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-$boot_device_id' {" | sed "s/^/$submenu_indentation/" fi -- Package-specific info: *********************** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/disk/by-uuid/033b8bcc-6c1f-4262-8f11-6cbae5107772 / ext3 rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro,commit=600,barrier=1,data=journal 0 0 /dev/sda1 /boot ext2 ro,sync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,nodiratime,errors=continue 0 0 /dev/mapper/opt /opt ext3 rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro,commit=600,barrier=1,data=journal 0 0 *********************** END /proc/mounts *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/device.map (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD3200BEVS-08VAT2_WD-WXF0E79WF199 *********************** END /boot/grub/device.map *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/grub.cfg # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub # ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ### if [ -s $prefix/grubenv ]; then set have_grubenv=true load_env fi if [ "${next_entry}" ] ; then set default="${next_entry}" set next_entry= save_env next_entry set boot_once=true else set default="0" fi if [ x"${feature_menuentry_id}" = xy ]; then menuentry_id_option="--id" else menuentry_id_option="" fi export menuentry_id_option if [ "${prev_saved_entry}" ]; then set saved_entry="${prev_saved_entry}" save_env saved_entry set prev_saved_entry= save_env prev_saved_entry set boot_once=true fi function savedefault { if [ -z "${boot_once}" ]; then saved_entry="${chosen}" save_env saved_entry fi } function load_video { if [ x$feature_all_video_module = xy ]; then insmod all_video else insmod efi_gop insmod efi_uga insmod ieee1275_fb insmod vbe insmod vga insmod video_bochs insmod video_cirrus fi } terminal_input console terminal_output console if [ "${recordfail}" = 1 ] ; then set timeout=-1 else if [ x$feature_timeout_style = xy ] ; then set timeout_style=menu set timeout=5 # Fallback normal timeout code in case the timeout_style feature is # unavailable. else set timeout=5 fi fi ### END /etc/grub.d/00_header ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/01_authenticate ### set superusers=root ### PASSWORD LINE REMOVED ### ### END /etc/grub.d/01_authenticate ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### set menu_color_normal=cyan/blue set menu_color_highlight=white/blue ### END /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ### ### END /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_uefi-firmware ### ### END /etc/grub.d/30_uefi-firmware ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/40_custom ### # This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries.
