This is still an issue in Ubuntu 12.10 @ cmcginty (casey-mcginty) :

Also none of the workarounds worked for me in GRUB 2.00 on Ubuntu 12.10 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512593 Title: GRUB2 : countdown disappeared To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/512593/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
