2cfb45df5e * docs/grub.texi (Simple configuration): Document GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN
and GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT.  Recommend setting
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text rather than unsetting it in order to

serial' rather than putting the two commands on separate lines,
since console input will be inoperative after the first command.

Vladimir Serbinenko).
