Weird, I have no idea. Just want to say that I am using legacy Grub on ~amd64 just fine. Not grub-static, and the static USE flag is not set. Never had a problem with that. Do you use a splashimage in your grub.conf? Maybe without you will get a working text mode Grub. Not that this should matter, but anyway. Wonko
