Sometimes you need to access GRUB in text mode (e.g. when using out of band management systems like HP ILO in "textcons" mode). | |||
To use GRUB in text mode there are two settings that need to be configured depending on whether you use EFI or BIOS boot: | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang="nix"> | <syntaxhighlight lang="nix"> | ||
boot.loader.grub. | boot.loader.grub.gfxmodeEfi= "text"; | ||
boot.loader.grub.gfxmodeBios= "text"; | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | </syntaxhighlight> | ||
Only disabling the GRUB splash screen via <syntaxhighlight lang="nix" inline>boot.loader.grub.splashScreen = null;</syntaxhighlight> results in a similar output but that is not the real text only mode. | |||
