No problem with Grub. Grub2 is the problem. Millions of files messing
with millions of variables, and sometime following the instructions of
which programs compile those files and which program puts it on the
mbr/guid or whatever it's called actually works.

I can probably find you five different ways in the Internet to change
the font size on booting, and none of them works.

Just like systemd, it's great if someone else does it for you, it's
horrific if you have to do some DIY.
