The same problem here too, but no where near minutes. The "[minimal BASH-like..." message, which before the last grub-pc update would only flash by in half a second, now stays up for eleven seconds with constant noises from the hard drive. After the boot menu comes up everything appears to work normally (or perhaps there is a very slight delay for the actual boot to start after I hit enter, but that may just be in my imagination).
This is on an old nforce2 system (gigabyte GA-7nnxp) with a SiI 3112 SATA controller. -- 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
