Description of problem: After typing 'grub' one gets: [ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible completions of a device/filename.] Moreover 'info grub' claims in section '13.2.14 terminal': Select a terminal for user interaction. The terminal is assumed to be VT100-compatible unless `--dumb' is specified. So far so good but typing "terminal" at grub prompt, with no '--dumb' specification, brings: grub> terminal terminal console (dumb) (no edit) and indeed there is no edit which is really PITA if one needs to do something from a grub shell and which happens; sometimes even not that infreqently. In particular there is no way to check which devices grub really sees as device.map is not always sufficient for that. What gives? This used to work. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): grub-0.97-13 (at least)
