An excerpt from an e-mail I was forwarded regarding this: if $console contains (space or comma separated) "efi" then do not draw a menu (fall back to autoboot routine). if $beastie_disable is set to "YES" (case insensitive), then do not draw a menu (fall back to autoboot routine). We are clearly doing this wrong. I will fix it ASAP. Thanks, Kyle Evanshelp
