Comment 11 for bug 444495

Yes, I've always seen the grub2 menu here, since installing the alpha, right up to date.

I *do* have another OS installed; the Windows XP the machine originally came with (that I never use, but it *is* there...)

Also there's a pile of menu entries for most if not all of the past kernel versions since the original install.

I got the impression that the script responsible for this is in /etc/grub.d/00_header; but a quick look through there shows me that it doesn't even reference GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT. It is in 03_os_prober though, so I'm going to try the tip given above to turn that off.

Presumably that means I lose the WinXP menu entry (when I do view the menu?)

Will report back in a mo with what happened...
