Grub doesn't pause to allow me to choose the other boot option. Is there
a config option to make it do that?
In the /boot/grub/grub.conf file there's a couple of parameters you
might want to play with:
timeout=5
hiddenmenu
You can increase the timeout (in seconds), so the menu stays up a bit
longer. And you can comment out the hiddenmenu option, so the full menu
appears straight away
The default (5 seconds) that it waits when starting after a normal
shutdown is plenty of time. But after hibernating, it doesn't wait 5
seconds. I suppose if I change 5 seconds to 15 seconds, it might wait
longer, but it doesn't seem likely. I tried turning off "hiddenmenu",
which allowed me to see a brief flash of the Grub menu just now.
