Re: [coreboot] GRUB boot menu is not showing GRUB2

[Dhanasekar Jaganathan]

Thanks for the info
Hi Zoran,

Sorry, I have mentioned */boot/default/grub.cfg* by mistake, instead of*
/etc/default/grub.*

Hi Mariusz, ,

Yes,.. My system booted to Fedora on second serial port (ttyS1).

I have modified  /etc/default/grub as

*GRUB_SERIAL_COMMAND="serial --speed=115200 --unit=1 --word=8 --parity=no
--stop=1"*
*GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="console=tty1 console=ttyS1,115200
vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16 $([ -x usr/sbin/rhcrashkernel-param ] &&
/usr/sbin/rhcr*"

Still, I am not getting boot menu.
I am working on it.

Please provide your suggestions.

Thanks,
Dhanasekar
