Jani,
Thank you for taking the time to look at this report.
The point I'm trying to make is that the keystatus check is dependent on
1. 30_os-prober being executed
and (I think)
2. Satisfying these conditionals in 30_os-prober
if [ "x${found_other_os}" = "x" ] ; then
if [ "x${GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT}" != "x" ] ; then
if [ "x${GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT}" = "x0" ] ; then
The main issue to me is that it appears 30_os-prober must be run to get
the keystatus check to appear in grub.cfg. I don't find any other
scripts in /etc/grub.d that place the keystatus check in grub.cfg .
For a variety of reasons, such as using a custom menu or to speed the
creation of grub.cfg on a single OS system, a user may choose to remove
the executable bit from 30_os-prober. If that is done, the keystatus
check is not available - at least the keystatus check is not added to
grub.cfg.
