= Using old graphics modes in bootloader
|

[[using-old-graphics-modes]]
|
|
|
|
The terminal device is chosen with GRUB_TERMINAL. For more information, see the link:http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Simple-configuration[Grub manual].
|
|
|
|
Valid terminal output names depend on the platform, but may include
|
|
`console` (PC BIOS and EFI consoles), `serial` (serial terminal),
|
|
`gfxterm` (graphics-mode output), `ofconsole` (Open Firmware console),
|
|
or `vga_text` (VGA text output, mainly useful with Coreboot).
|
|
|
|
The default is to use the platform's native terminal output.
|
|
|
|
In Fedora, `gfxterm` is the default options. To get the legacy graphics modes:
|
|
|
|
.Procedure
|
|
|
|
. Edit the `/etc/default/grub` file.
|
|
|
|
. Set the `GRUB_TERMINAL` variable to one of the above mentioned options.
|
|
|
|
. Regenerate the *GRUB2* configuration file and reinstall the bootloader into the MBR, as described in xref:adding-other-operating-systems-grub2[Adding other operating systems to the *GRUB2* menu].
