The problem isn't that grub.cfg is read-only. It's that nay change to grub.cfg will be overwritten any time grub-mkconfig/update-grub/update-grub2 is run. Furhermore, I remembered after deleting previous emails in thsi thread that there's one suggestion that wasn't made namely to set "GRUB_TERMINAL=console". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
