It's been a while since I've used Fedora, but as I recall it doesn't
show the grub menu by default and has an extremely short timeout
period.  Pressing the ESC or similar should cause the menu to appear.
There is a sweet spot between POSTing and grub booting the kernel that
you have to manage to hit.  I've always just starting mashing the key
as soon as the system started posting.  You're luck my differ on that.

Good luck.
