As usual with a new release, there are newcomers on the forums who can often have their problems solved by adding something to the kernel line. (Of course, it's not only newcomers, but...) I'm wondering if it's worth considering increasing grub's default timeout to 3 seconds or so. As it stands, one has to hover over the escape key, trying to time it correctly. (Or, if they're as lazy as I am, before rebooting, go to another terminal and edit the mounted grub.config.) I don't feel strongly enough about it to wade through bugzilla, and most certainly do NOT want to cause a controversial bikeshed thread, but I wonder--do people generally feel it's worth considering, or just a waste of time. The motive is that until we have a perfect world, when all computers will boot perfectly the first time after an installation, it would make it a bit easier to edit the kernel line if necessary. I really don't see a good reason not to have it. I know that Windows refugees like quick boots, but don't see 3 seconds making that big a difference. (Dinosaur that I am, I've always thought that there is too much emphasis on quick boots with pretty splash screens, but that's just the old vs. the new and all that rot.) -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Riley: I thought maybe we could have a little spread.
