distros don't seem to have that problem.
More of a workaround than a solution, but I stopped using grub
altogether once they upgraded to grub2. (The complexity of the grub2
config file as compared to the simplicity of the grub-legacy menu.lst
file is what eventually turned me away.) I've started using syslinux
in recent years, and have been quite happy with it.

Hello everyone,
I have good news ... sort of. After a full reset (OS+BIOS) here is the
result :
[1] Archlinux : not able to boot.
[2] Obarun : not able to boot. Yet this distro uses syslinux, not
grub...
[3] OpenSuze : not able to boot. David : maybe a difference between Leap
42.2 and 42.3 ?
[4] Debian : not able to boot. I tried Debian and Subgraph.
[5] Ubuntu : booting and functionnal (as functionnal as Ubuntu can be).
I'll install Ubuntu and see what I can install from there. Archlinux
with syslinux I guess. Note : all these USB stick were made with dd.
Even Ubuntu was unable to boot with an Easy2Boot stick with imgPTN image
and so one.
Tom
