[Bug 194730] Re: GRUB's three seconds delay unnecessary if only Ubuntu is installed

2010-10-28 Thread Phillip Susi
Grub legacy is no longer being developed so this will not be fixed there. Grub2 does get rid of the delay when you only have a single OS installed, so consider upgrading. ** Changed in: grub (Ubuntu) Status: New => Won't Fix -- GRUB's three seconds delay unnecessary if only Ubuntu is in

How about the best of both worlds? I'm not sure whether it's possible but how about having a message "Hold escape during boot for different boot options" during early startup, and leaving the delay at 0? ** Changed in: grub (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- GRUB's three seconds delay unn

I still think that those three seconds matter, the idea to reduce the time it takes for Ubuntu to boot and log in - http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/42/ - is currently the seventh idea with the most votes on Ubuntu brainstorm. I think we can all agree that Ubuntu boots without problems most of the

The main reason the three-second delay is still there is to permit access to recovery mode. Recovery mode is not just for when your system fails to boot in a way that GRUB can detect (and indeed probably wouldn't help in those cases); it also allows you to reset your root password or reconfigure X,
