Public bug reported: After updating Ubuntu 12.04.4 (amd64) hiding of GRUB2 menu not longer works. The menu always appears for 10s.
Reson found in /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ... adjust_timeout () { if [ "x${found_other_os}" != "x" ]; then cat << EOF set timeout_style=menu if [ "\${timeout}" = 0 ]; then set timeout=10 fi ... if another OS is found, the /etc/default/grub entry GRUB_TIMEOUT=0 is ignored because set to 0 in function adjust_timeout() In my point of view this is a bug, because it's not longer possible to hide grub2 menu if another OS is detected on the host. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1317039 Title: GRUB2 GRUB_TIMEOUT=0 not working when other OS found To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1317039/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
