Bug Description

Ubuntu Mate 17.10.1 Artful AMD64
Grub2 2.02~beta3-4ubunut7.2 AMD64

I'm using the 2.02~beta3-4ubuntu7 default version that came from ubuntu artful/universe amd64 packages

I upgraded to version 2.02~beta3-4ubuntu7.2 from the ubuntu artful-updates/universe amd64 packages, which triggers flashing ascii characters lines across the grub menu.

Those ascii characters lines are flashing every seconds, and the pattern change when i move up and down in the menu.

I had to reinstall Ubuntu Mate 17.10.1 and put everything related to grub2 (grub-pc / grub-cp-bin / grub-pc-common / grub2-common ) on hold before doing the post-install repository update.
