Came across this post a while ago about keeping grub quiet - may be a better solution than patching

The patch works on Debian because it applies maybe_quiet.patch to grub:

https://salsa.debian.org/grub-team/grub/-/blob/master/debian/patches/maybe-quiet.patch?ref_type=heads

It would not work with grub in the default Arch package, which does not apply the patch.

Came across this post a while ago about keeping grub quiet - may be a better solution than patching - I don't really use grub so not keen on testing

‘sudo sed -i -e 's/quiet_boot="0"/quiet_boot="1"/' -e 's/vt_handoff="0"/vt_handoff="1"/' /etc/grub.d/10_linux && sudo update-grub’

@xiota I just removed replaces from PKGBUILD

@rensenware As soon as a new grub version is released I will start working on the patches

rensenware commented on 2023-07-30 14:54 (UTC)

Just a question - I'm not sure who's in charge of these patches. Are there any plans to develop these patches for the new 2.12 release of grub? Thank you.

niobium93 commented on 2023-06-28 13:50 (UTC)

@drlorente97 Yeah, but it also includes it /twice/ in the regular initrd.

drlorente97 commented on 2023-06-28 13:06 (UTC)

@niobium93 intel-ucode is included in fallback initrd image too, that's OK. Nothing to worry about

niobium93 commented on 2023-06-28 08:12 (UTC)

It seems intel-ucode is included twice for me.

Hi, it has been a while! grub-silent is a patched, non-precompiled version of the grub (GRand Unified Bootloader). grub-silent package performs the boot process up to loading the kernel and initrd quickly and without debug messages or screen flickering. Since it is installed in the same location on the filesystem as grub and their binaries share names it has to replace it. No package should replace any other package's files, see PKGBUILD on ArchWiki
