Your grub has quite some modifications against upstream version.
Command hwmatch does not exist upstream and your grub.cfg effectively
overrides GRUB_TERMINAL. You have to ask your distribution how to
correctly disable gfxterm.

For a test you could remove or comment out line

if [ "${linux_gfx_mode}" != "text" ]; then load_video; fi

which still tries to load video drivers even though it is disabled by
setting terminal to console.
