Bug#1070006: debian-cd: daily arm64 netinst image: GRUB not started in graphical mode

Package: debian-cd
Version: 3.2.1
Severity: minor
User: [email protected]
Usertags: openqa

Hello maintainers of the netinst image,

The issue:
As seen on openQA [1], the GRUB menu for the arm64 netinst image (taken 
from the daily builds [2]) does not use the graphical mode, but text 
mode instead.

Some sub-menus assume that the graphical mode is active, but issue an 
error message: 'error: no video mode activated.' (e.g. 'Accessible dark 
contrast installer menu...')

Expected:
GRUB uses the graphical version of the boot menu.


During the miniDebCamp 2024 in Hamburg, ema showed that (at least for 
the live-build images) GRUB is able to use the graphical mode correctly.
As a side note, the graphical installer also shows properly, so there 
appears to be no problem in using the graphical mode.

With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
