Title:
  Error messages on stratup with timeout=0

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I am entirely new to Ubuntu and have installed release 12.04.1 LTS on
  a new uniform attend drive in a Dell D610 laptop. I set the following
  partitions: /boot - 100MB, Swap area - 3072MB, /home - the rest of the
  320GB drive less 20 GB & / - 20 GB. No other operating system is
  present.

  Initially, no GRUB screen showed at startup but the following error messages showed:
  Error: No such device
  Error: No such partition
  Error: No suitable mode found
  Error: No video mode activated
  After about 45 secs Ubuntu loaded.

  I ran the Boot Repair Disk after which the GRUB screen shows at
  startup. Now the error messages only show if GRUB-TIMEOUT is set to 0.
  I have not left it at zero.

  I reported the issue via the Boot Repair Disk system and was advised
  to submit this bug report.

  Please can you tell me why I get the error messages and how I might
  repair the system?

  Thank you

  Adrian
