Package: cdimage.debian.org

Version: 13.3.0

Booting a Debian Live media usually gives a grub menu with various
Live and install options.  On my ThinkPad X220, the Trixie Xfce Live
grub menu is missing, and the screen is blank.  Pressing Enter opens a
live session.  This was a UEFI boot.

The Trixie Xfce Live media displays the grub menu as expected on a
Dell Optiplex 7040 SFF desktop system.

A regular (non-live) Debian Trixie iso does not have this problem on
the ThinkPad X220.

Thanks,

Ken
