It doesnt seem to be able to match the "Welcome to Grub!" message
I reformatted my drive and remove gpt partition and tried with ms-dos and it still only matches and removed the "loading GRUB" message

ugh. I unfortunately no longer have a GPT machine I can try this on.

I may try to build a VM or similar, but will take me some time to debug this :/ Don't have any useful suggestion otherwise.

I've managed to hide the messages by downloading grub from arch abs and modifiying the pkgbuild script and remove the text inbetween the quotes where the welcome messages are

I removed the following : (Welcome to GRUB!\n\n) , (loading) , (GRUB) , (.) , (\r\n)

grub-install --recheck --target=i386-pc /dev/sda
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

After rebooting the messages are now gone !!
