Laptop: Dell Latitude E6510.

Grub installed on sda.
Power up ,and after bios's internal works, I do not get the grub menu.
All I get is an empty screen with the underscore cursor blinking at
upper left corner.
Reboot.
Press F12 to get the BIOS boot menu.
Select Internal HDD
Boots just fine.
Looks like the BIOS' concept of the primary boot drive is different
than "internal HDD". Check the boot order on the BIOS.
Boot order is
1. CD drive
2. USB drive
3. Internal Drive
4. Network
Presuming this is a real BIOS system (not UEFI), my wild guess would be:
You have a "malconfigured" grub installed in the MBR (/dev/sda) and a
"configured" grub installed in /dev/sda<boot-partition>.
Should this reasoning apply, marking /dev/sda<boot-partition>
"bootable" (using gparted, fdisk etc.) should help.

It IS set to bootable (sda3)
But grub is on sda.
