Same problem here. I've suffered from the servers which are stuck in the GRUB phase occasionally. Now I know the reason. The recordfail feature can be a useful, but setting the timeout to -1 is too excessive in my opinion.
As the above stated, changing it to a reasonable value, or at least making an option to change the behavior in /etc/default/grub would greatly help. These changes are particularly more important in the server edition. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/669481 Title: Timeout should not be -1 if $recordfail To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/669481/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
