<div>Hei, I created a new thread to don't pollute the other one

One is with video resolution that seems kernel level on a

To list video modes available in your systems you can try:<br>
# sudo hwinfo --framebuffer<br>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Once you find the resolution that suites your taste you
just edit /etc/default/grub and feed GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480
accordingly; don't forget to run # update-grub afterwards.<br>

That one will be a tomorrow morning project. I'm seeing the modes,
but the mode was ignored when added to grub. I did notice a couple
things with how many bit video and such.<br>

"The other is giving strangeness with overlayfs.<br>
Neither is a show stopper, as I can break the overlay and
update the kernel/grub and the other is simply stuck in
640x480, but it would be nice to get another pair of eyes on
each problem to ensure it's a bug and not a keyboard-chair
interface issue."<br>

<div>What's your issue here?<br>

With overlay on, I noticed the issue when grub was updated during
one of the updates that updated the kernel.<br>
Do an update-grub and get the short version:<br>
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of
`overlayroot'.<br>
