Per the documentation, modifying the WELCOME_TEXT variable in /etc/ykluks.cfg allows users to personalize the prompt.
When booting in CLI mode (GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" in /etc/default/grub), newlines (\n) in WELCOME_TEXT are recognized and the text is written over multiple lines.
This does not seem to work in GUI boot (GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"), as the newline appears as a litteral \n. Is there a way to get multiline text this way?
Thank you
Edit: Adding a litteral newline in the variable works
WELCOME_TEXT="First Line
Second Line"
But there seems to be a maximum length of the text for the GUI boot. If the WELCOME_TEXT is too long then the GUI boot just goes "Maximum number of tries reached" without giving the user a chance to do anything.
