Public bug reported: With the latest grub-pc update, grub2 takes several minutes to get to the menu. During this time there is almost constant hard drive activity...this did not happen with the last update which would take 5 to 10 seconds at the most. This is with a i7-920/SATA2 system.
Please advise as to further information needed. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu karmic (development branch) Release: 9.10 apt-cache policy grub-pc grub-pc: Installed: 1.96+20090826-3ubuntu3 Candidate: 1.96+20090826-3ubuntu3 Version table: *** 1.96+20090826-3ubuntu3 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Current grub-pc takes several minutes to show menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/420933 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
