Am I correct that the i915 kmod video driver would not help with this as it not loaded at the time boot menu shows?
Btw I tested booting 2.7CE (feb 15th build) from usb-drive and it had the visually correct boot menu.
For proper testing, I would need to swap in another ssd and make a test install with 2.7CE, but I don't think I'll waste time at that...
