hi

FWIW my kernel grub2 line has this bootcode

ro vga=791 quiet nomodeset nouveau.modeset=0

ignoring the vga issue I just started to play with grub2 in command mode at the menuentry stage.

I could not remember any of that nouveau stuff and could not be bothered writing it down so did not enter any of the above bootcode and my system still booted ok.

I know your thread is about "installing"

And I am using the closed source nvidia driver installed thru smxi or sgfxi.

submitted in case its useful to modify



--------part contents of /etc/default/grub

# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
# For full documentation of the options in this file, see:
# info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet nomodeset nouveau.modeset=0"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="vga=791"
