[Bug 411584] [NEW] karmic: After update, grub2 does not unhide the menu when other operating systems are installed

[Andres E. Rodriguez Lazo]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub2

Today I updated my karmic system to the latest packages. This also
updated the latest grub2 package (source package version:
1.96+20090725-1ubuntu2).

After the update, I rebooted my machines and they booted directly into
Ubuntu without unhiding the menu, though they got other Operating
Systems Installed. According to the changelog: "grub-installer will
unhide it if other operating systems are installed." So, according to
this, the menu should have been unhided because my system has other
operating systems installed, however this did not happen.

The first one has Win Vista installed on it. The Second one has Win XP.

** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Low
         Status: Triaged

** Summary changed:

- karmic: grub2 does not unhide the menu when other operating systems are installed
+ karmic: After update, grub2 does not unhide the menu when other operating systems are installed

** Description changed:
