Since installing the TDE/Ubuntu 20.04.1 image (in a VirtualBox), it had not displayed the GRUB boot menu, it displays a couple of lines (as if it were a terminal window), then goes straight to the Ubuntu splash screen. The beginning of the original /etc/default/grub file was: GRUB_DEFAULT="0" GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE="hidden" GRUB_TIMEOUT="0" GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" I manually made the following changes: * removed: GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE="hidden" * made: GRUB_TIMEOUT="5" then ran update-grub and rebooted. The GRUB menu now appears. I would like to offer a friendly suggestion that for future TDE/Ubuntu images, if this is possible to do, the default grub file not contain GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE="hidden" and the GRUB_TIMEOUT entry be set to at least 3. Please note that I do not know if the original default items copied above, is the actual standard for all Ubuntu images. Ubuntu offers a package grub-customizer. When I looked at that, the General settings indicated the GRUB menu was set to display, but it seems that the GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE="hidden" entry overrides that and was preventing it from displaying. After saving the settings in grub-customizer, GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE="hidden" was still in /etc/default/grub. ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
