The recordfail logic is as follows: If the previous boot failed, then don't time out when displaying the menu next time round, since the user probably wants to do something different.
I would suggest investigating why recordfail isn't getting unset, instead. /etc/init.d/grub-common is (currently) the script that's supposed to do that. -- GRUB2 : countdown disappeared https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512593 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
