boot fedora to edit the grub.conf file.
"/boot/grub/menu.lst"  or a symlink "/etc/grub.conf"

there are various parameters in this file, changing those to your
needs will help.
1. Increase the wait period
timeout <n secs>

2. remove this line  if you are prompted to hit ESC before to see the grub menu.
hiddenmenu

3.The default OS to boot.
default <#>

the conf file itself has sufficient explanation of these params..
