Title:
  The grub boot menu is often not drawn or visible

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  On most boots of my machine, the grub boot menu is not drawn.  The
  background color appears as a thin border around the edge of the
  screen, but no menu is visible and grub does not appear to respond to
  keyboard input.  The system boots normally after this, but only to the
  default entry.

  At one time this appeared to be correlated to boot vs. reboot, with
  boots working normally and reboots displaying no menu, but I have also
  seen cold boots where the menu does not appear so I no longer believe
  this to be the case.  However, it does seem that the menu is more
  likely to display on a cold boot than a reboot.
