The example above is BIOS boot with a GPT labelled root disk. |

Now that you've reminded me, I do have one UEFI system, and it does |
| 27 |
contain a few extra global lines. It's also GPT labelled, and still |
| 28 |
contains the original Lenovo Win10 installation -- I shrunk the Win10 |
| 29 |
partition and added two new partitions (Linux root, Linux |
| 30 |
swap). Below is the grub.cfg for that machine: |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
IIRC, it worked fine without any of the gfx/font/video stuff, but like |
| 33 |
you I wanted a nice big font. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Note that on this machine I just tell grub to search for the |
| 36 |
filesystem with the label "root" instead of specifying it manually -- |
| 37 |
though it is still specified manually for the kernel argument. I don't |
| 38 |
remember why I did that... |
