While I have not experienced the trouble you're having with grub, nor am I a grub expert, I thought it might be worth getting some more info about the problem. (1). What version of grub are you running? (2). Does 'grub2-script-check(1)' reveal any grub.cfg syntax errors? (3). Do you have GRUB_TIMEOUT set in /etc/default/grub to a value other than the default 5 seconds? (4). Did you try setting these options in grub.cfg? set pager=1 set debug=all Did that shed any light on the problem you're having?
