[Bug 647250] Re: Countdown not displayed when GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET is set to false

[Jonathan Ben Yhochanan Reich Abohab Da Fonseca]

This is happening to e since I had to change GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 to
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0; from this I could not correct more anything once
that my next line is correct GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true as also the
others...

Title:
  Countdown not displayed when GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET is set to false

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub2

  Setting a numerical value for GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT in /etc/default/grub
  properly sets a delay during boot that allows the user to press
  "shift" to display the Grub menu.  However setting
  GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false no longer displays a countdown during
  this delay period.

  Running "sudo update-grub" as indicated after changing the
  /etc/default/grub has no effect -- the countdown is still not
  displayed.

  This feature worked just fine on Karmic, but appears broken on Lucid.
