Description: Since grub 2.0beta2-1 version, I have to comment these lines :

insmod efi_gop
insmod efi_uga
insmod ieee1275_fb

in order to get a straight boot process.

My pc is bios based, not uefi based.

Not a bad bug, but pretty annoying one. It only appears if you use grub-mkconfig.

Additional info:

[fred@fredo-arch ~]$ pacman -Qi grub2-common
Name : grub2-common
Version : 1:2.00beta2-2

Steps to reproduce:

Just install grub2 and use grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
This task depends upon

You have to update core.img using grub-install for this error to go. It is assumed that the user does this on by him/herself. This is not a bug at all. Updating grub2 package will not update the MBR code and the /boot/grub files.
