: I used Grub2 when I installed 12.2 Bld #167 DVD iso last earlier today.
How do I get to see the boot menu to enter "init 3"on the bott command line (used to be hold down SHIFT to do this)? Anyone know, please?
Move highlight to your desired menu entry and type 'e' to enter editor mode. You could then append "3" to your existing kernel parameters.
Thanks, Michael
Thanks, Michael, for your response but....no, this is not the answer. The command '3' or 'init 3' is not "recognised" :-( .
(Oh for the simplicity of grub legacy! :-( )
Those are custom gfxboot we made for legacy grub and syslinux (they are not part of grub and syslinux in terms of upstream). We might have to continue to work out a gfxboot module for grub2, but nevertheless it won't work on EFI as gfxboot core relies on legacy INT calls for drawing. Another options is we expand the grub2 theme to offer widgets which needed to reinvent gfxboot's functionality. Personally I would go for the second options, but it's not trivial and would take plenty time to finish. :( I'll try to make it on 12.3. Thanks, Michael
