Description:
Could not get kernel console(runlevel 3, boot messages etc) working without loading those modules. The default configuration that ships with grub2-common doesn't load these modules, grub2-efi-<arch> should add those to the GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES array.


Package version : grub2-efi-x86_64 1:1.99-2

Simply loading the modules will not make boot messages appear on screen. This is due to https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/26430 and requires the user to manually add https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB2#Correct_GRUB2_No_Suitable_Mode_Found_Error to grub.cfg to make it work.

Once https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/26430 is corrected, this bug will be automatically solved.
