Package: grub2-common
Followup-For: Bug #779815
Dear Ian,
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT has been deprecated for quite a while. Please use
the alternatives.
`GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT'
Wait this many seconds before displaying the menu. If <ESC> is
pressed during that time, display the menu and wait for input
according to `GRUB_TIMEOUT'. If a hotkey associated with a menu
entry is pressed, boot the associated menu entry immediately. If
the timeout expires before either of these happens, display the
menu for the number of seconds specified in `GRUB_TIMEOUT' before
booting the default entry.
If you set `GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT', you should also set
`GRUB_TIMEOUT=0' so that the menu is not displayed at all unless
<ESC> is pressed.
This option is unset by default, and is deprecated in favour of
the less confusing `GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=countdown' or
`GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden'.
