[Bug 1965689] Re: Black screen instead grub menu at boot

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

During boot the ESC key should get you out of the splash screen
application. At least on Kubuntu this works.

The GRUB menu should be shown if in /etc/default/grub you remove
"splash" from the command line and then run 'update-grub'.

Title:
  Black screen instead grub menu at boot

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Fresh install of Ubuntu 22.04 on multi-boot system.

  Steps:
  1. Switch on computer.
  2. You see for about 10 seconds a black screen instead GRUB MENU.
  3. After 10 seconds Ubuntu boots normally.

  Extra tests:
  - During the 10 seconds of black screen, I can press ENTER and Ubuntu will boot.
  - I thought that maybe grub menu was just not visible but still there, so I've tried to use "arrow keys" (up and down) to select a different system and then press Enter... but nothing happened, the screen remained black.
