Details:
GRUB manual states, that multiple devices can be selected for
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT, separated by spaces.
However, using *GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console serial"* in */etc/default/grub*
makes the *grub-mkconfig* exit with error.
>From a quick look into the code, it is apparent, that the script relies on a
fact, that there is only a _single_ device in this definition. That clashes
with the manual and even with GRUB itself.
By an obvious and simple hack in the case statement, I was able to satisfy my
needs, but that's far from a general solution.
This "single-device" approach made it also to the rule
*/etc/grub.d/00_header* which I managed to fix quite nicely, so I dare to
attach a patch.
