After videoing the screen, I see that the error message is: Error: file '/EFI/BOOT/grub/i386-pc/efi_gop.mod' not found Error: no suitable video modes found efi_gop* is in i386-efi and x86_64-efi, but not in i386-pc.
efi_gop is a driver for EFI graphics. It is available only in EFI mode, not in PC BIOS mode. I guess GRUB PC and GRUB EFI share the same grub.cfg config file which was generated for EFI mode and includes an "insmod efi_gop" command.
Indeed - I set the second partition bootable and now it will boot in legacy-bios mode - thanks
So the message was displayed by the BIOS which is non compliant. A compliant BIOS should not care about the partition table.
