My UEFI configuration options allow me to set a timeout. It'll show a boot menu for so-many seconds before automatically carrying on booting the default choice. This is a "what to do now" choice, as opposed to making a permanent setting. Bill, this is the configuration controls built into the motherboard, what people used to call BIOS settings, but often with a fancier interface. You get to choose your defaults, and which choices will appear, and a timeout period. You may even be able to put in more useful names, such as Fedora rather than drive 0, etc. This is all before GRUB gets involved. When the motherboard's firmware boots Fedora (as opposed to any other choice), that's when it hands over to GRUB and the GRUB menu. It's a bit of a pass-the-baton relay race. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.95.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jul 24 13:59:37 UTC 2023 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
