Do an su or sudo to root in an xterm of your choice in the gui, and
then do 
less /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
in that same xterm.

You can then cut and paste a *single* line beginning with 
linux16 /vmlinuz etc.
If you can get it, the one from the first menuentry would be the best,
as that is the line that is probably booting.

You can use the mouse to highlight the text, and then use a center
click to paste it into an email.  If you use konsole as your xterm, you
can save the text to the clipboard with ctrl-shift-c, and paste it into
the mail with ctrl-v.  Unless, you have kde installed, you probably
will not have konsole installed.

It won't have the same options as my line; it's highly customized. My
definition of like is obviously a lot more sloppy than yours is.  I
meant 'general form', you interpreted 'identical'. But it will start
with the linux16 /vmlinuz

The idea is that it will show if there are any unusual kernel options on
that line that might be causing your problem.  And if it has quiet on it
that would explain why you aren't seeing boot messages.
