Super Grub2 CD not so super

December 01, 2018 — BarryK

This looks interesting, detects the operating systems installed on a PC, creates a boot menu:

Downloaded version 2.02s10 hybrid iso, tried it on my "new" Compaq Presario...

Initial menu, chose "Detect and show boot methods"
...got blank screen, had to reboot.

Initial menu, chose "Enable all native disk drivers *experimental*"
...came back to initial menu, keyboard dead, had to press power button to reboot.

Initial menu, chose "Boot manually...", then "Operating systems"
...got blank screen, had to reboot.

Hmmm.
