Yes, doing that worked, but with the (little-lamented) loss of my WinXP boot menu entry. In any case an easy way to get that back was to re- enable the os-prober, run update-grub, then copy the winxp menu entry to the end of /etc/grub.d/40_custom. That's just my workaround for now; ideally we want 30_os_prober to do its stuff, add the menu entries, but still offer no menu if that's what the user wants.
Anyway, to be specific, as the note above which suggested the os-prober had a typo, the "fix" was to append the following line to /etc/default/grub: GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER="true" (not OS-PROBER) Then run update-grub The text "Grub Loading..." still flashes up momentarily. Can we get rid of that next? :-) -- Grub 2 1.97 Beta 4 Hidden Menu No Longer Works https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444495 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
