Laptop: Dell Latitude E6510.
OS: F20 with all updates
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
Ok, so do you have a CD in the drive or a USB drive plugged in? If
so, it's going to try to boot from them first.
OK, so how long before bios times out and move on
to the internal HD? The usb drive, which is
NOT bootable, has no booter installed, and
neither one of it's partitions are bootable:
