Details:
I have a system connected to a serial console and a display. OS is Fedora
Core 1 with the .93-7 grub rpm installed. My grub.conf:
serial --unit=0 --speed=9600
terminal --timeout=10 serial console
default=0
timeout=15
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Fedora Core (2.6.10-0.ti.4.fc1)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.10-0.ti.4.fc1 ro root=LABEL=/ acpi=on selinux=0
vdso=0 exec-shield=0 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600
initrd /initrd-2.6.10-0.ti.4.fc1.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.10-0.ti1.fc1)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.10-0.ti1.fc1 ro root=LABEL=/ acpi=on selinux=0
vdso=0 exec-shield=0 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600
initrd /initrd-2.6.10-0.ti1.fc1.img
title Memtest86+ (1.55.1)
kernel /memtest86+-1.55.1
on boot, grub prints the 'press any key to continue' message on both the
serial console and the display, as expected. However, pressing a key on the
serial console does not have the intended result (which would be for the menu
to appear). Instead, grub stops printing 'press any key to continue'
messages, waits a few moments, then just starts booting the default image.
For some reason, the menu is not displayed and I can't pick a different boot
image.
This works fine on the display - pressing a key there results in the menu
appearing.
I suspect this is related to the hiddenmenu or possibly this bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=134029
Any idea why the menu is not displayed? As you can see, we aren't using
hiddenmenu.
