It's a while since I stuffed around with grub, but "info grub" says that
it will boot immediately without displaying the menu, if GRUB_TIMEOUT is
set to zero. Anything like that in your /etc/default/grub?
I also have a note from a prior encounter, saying: "SHIFT is a suitable
boot interrupt, causing the menu to be displayed, even if
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0" Info seems to concur that it can also be
responsible for booting like a sneak attack.
Both GRUB_TIMEOUT and GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT should be sought in the
editable config /etc/default/grub, not /boot/grub/grub.cfg, generated by
update-grub.
