[Bug 447725] Re: grub nice 'recordfail' feature doesn't work for hibernation
/etc/init.d/grub-common is not run after resume from hibernate. So it cannot reset recordfail. /etc/pm/sleep.d/10_grub-common also ist not run.

[Bug 447725] Re: grub nice 'recordfail' feature doesn't work for hibernation
I think I've figured out the root cause of the problem in Ubuntu 9.10, upstart. I've found that on my system my default runlevel is 'unknown'. When I init into a valid runlevel and restart, GRUB once again has a timeout. Of course, that fix is only temporary as the system will once again boot into runlevel 'unknown' when the system restarts. I think that GRUB2 isn't exactly compatible with a system like Karmic that uses upstart in place of runlevels. -- grub nice 'recordfail' feature doesn't work for hibernation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447725 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am having the same bug, and recordfail=1 even if concurrency=none for me. If I set recordfail=0 and restart grub works.. once. The next time I restart it goes back to not using a timeout.

I confirm what David Tomlin wrote. After setting concurrency=none to concurrency=shell in /etc/init.d/rc the file /boot/grub/grubenv has recordfail=1 after each reboot. Resetting the line in /etc/init.d/rc to concurrency=none and one time manual edit of /boot/grub/grubenv to change to recordfail=0 resolves the problem.

[Bug 447725] Re: grub nice 'recordfail' feature doesn't work for hibernation
Just out of curiosity, did you happen to edit your /etc/init.d/rc file and change concurrency=none to concurrency=shell? I did this because it supposedly helps ubuntu boot faster by spreading the boot scripts across two cores if you have a dual core processor. I had it set for weeks before I experienced the behaviour of ubuntu 9.10 stopping at the grub boot screen. Once the behaviour showed itself, I edited /boot/grub/grubenv to recordfail=0 manually only to have it reset back to recordfail=1 after a reboot just like you said. Once I edited /etc/init.d/rc and set the concurrency value back to "=none" just on a whim, and manually changed /boot/grub/grubenv manually again to recordfail=0, I didn't have anymore issues.

gksu gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom
& add to the bottom:

if [ ${recordfail} = 1 ]; then
set timeout=3
else
set timeout=0

# end
this is a symptom fix, but also ensures that if there were a
real boot problem, one has 3 seconds (or whatever time)
to pick another option.

[Bug 447725] Re: grub nice 'recordfail' feature doesn't work for hibernation
making grubenv read-only prevents the change to 1, is incorrect, grub2 simply makes it a backup file & creates a new grubenv file with recordfail=1. so, if I want to boot directly to the O, I have to manally set grubenv recordfail=0. I hate to say it, but Grub-legacy was simpler, & less error prone, only an expert could benefit from Grub2, most users only care about simple, easy choices, & want a PC just to boot to the OS of their choice without having to have a degree in computer science.

[Bug 447725] Re: grub nice 'recordfail' feature doesn't work for hibernation
recordfail=1 does not reset to 0 On my system, the latest updates changed grub2 settings to were the menu appears regardless of changes in etc/default/grub script. recordfail is set to 1, the grub menu appears and stays, until I choose a selection, regardless of other grub2 settings. only by changing recordfail to 0 will the PC boot directly to OS. Changing recordfail back to 0 returns to 1 on the next boot in grubenv. making grubenv read-only prevents the change to 1, but of course only fixes the symptom, not the true cause. I had set Power Management to Never put computer to sleep, & to Never put display to sleep, & yet it does go into suspend mode, regardless of my settings to the contrary. I assume that recordfail=1 may be related to Power Management failure. System runlevels for ACPID were apparently changed by Karmic updates, which may be related. seperating bug reports into categories can fail to realize the connections between these bugs, its like treating symptoms without actually curing the bug. one script effects another script, which effects a configuration, which effects programs. tying Grub2 into loops & feedbacks, scripts & modules, not only increases the complexity unnecessarily, but also increases the chance for interrelated failures. KISS=Keep It Simple S (Solvers?), is a good motto, because even a stupid (ignorant) user, like myself can analyze & fix it, unless one programs the PC to fix itself, which is, of course quite complicated. xorg is another example of over-complicating simple steps into automatic, complicated steps, to were the user cannot override the program. Taking user choice away, making it complicated, to were only a wizard can fix it, only alienates the users; and ... one ends up with another Microsoft, were only money to pay an expert solves the problems, & even then an upgrade requires even more money, because that is what Microsoft and companies is all about. Ubuntu could easily turn the same way. Make it complicate to were the average user is unable to fix the problems, take away the users input and choice, & togetherness is gone!
