I search in asm code, but still unsuccessfully. No, that's the only place it comes from. If you're still seeing it, then you haven't properly reinstalled the rebuilt version, somehow. Perhaps you didn't run grub-install, or perhaps you ran it with the wrong destination. > btw: This function do not print Inverted. It's called as follows: grub_setcolorstate (GRUB_TERM_COLOR_HIGHLIGHT); grub_printf ("Welcome to GRUB!\n\n"); grub_setcolorstate (GRUB_TERM_COLOR_STANDARD); The grub_setcolorstate calls are what causes the message to be printed in inverse video. -- Colin Watson [cjwatson@ubuntu.com]
