Relevant then (though I don't remember it ever being in Debian...) - not relevant now. There is a "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX" though, and you can create custom variables. >>> >>> "info grub" lists these variables in one of its sections (there's a >>> way of going straight to that section but I don't know it). The built-in variables can be found with:- $ grep "export GRUB_DEVICE" -A42 /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig Searching info is, eg.:- $ info grub --index-search term_you_look_for <snipped> > > After editing the grub startup by removing the payload line I was able > to boot and could then remove the payload line from the > /etc/default/grub file.

Cheers -- "I love talking about the Kennedy assasination. The reason I do is because I'm fascinated by it. I'm fascinated that our government could lie to us so blatantly, so obviously for so long, and we do absolutely nothing about it. I think that's interesting in what is ostensibly a democracy.

I'm like, alright, then don't bring up Jesus to me.
