"Error setting up gfxboot" on chromebooks about gfxboot HOT 8 CLOSED

So, as I understand it, a solution would be to keep the active video mode if it's a graphics mode?

That sounds correct, even though I'm not an expert on these matters.

Ok, I've no chromebook, though. Could you test a fix?

Sure.

Ok, I've opened a bug here: https://bugzilla.suse.com/980570; this makes it easier for me to track this and provide test isos. You don't need an account to access the bug.

Please try the test iso I attached there. Just 'dd' it to an unused usb stick. It will boot and list all available video modes.

My suspicion is that things are actually fine but the Chromebook has just an unusual selection of video modes. In this case we'll get away by just adjusting the gfxboot config file.
