Grub out of memory?

General system EndeavourOS installation
26

Yeah, I’ve changed it back now.

I’ve even tried disabling the grub theme, as another user suggested, but that just gave me a blank screen.

27

your /etc/default/grub has

GRUB_THEME=/boot/grub/themes/EndeavourOS/theme.txt

you had this commented out before? to not use the theme?

28

Yes, and Grub didn’t like this at all! I just got a blank screen.

29

I’ve just downloaded the new grub update from unstable branch and it seems - so far - to have fixed everything. No out of memory errors and the theme displays correctly!

30

This is indeed strange … not sure but I do see random error on my testings also.

31

This seems to be the solving change

32

Grub 2:2.06.r322.gd9b4638c5-4 has fixed all my boot problems now.

33

I have this “out of memory” error too, after pressing a key the system boots fine tho.
So we just have to wait for a grub package update to include that DEFAULT_HEAP_SIZE change?
No other actions needed?

Yeah, it didn’t fix the “out of memory” error for me.

37

you will need to run grub-install again to get it i think?
