Public bug reported: While packaging GRUB 2.00 and testing it in kvm on quantal, I noticed that the timeout at the GRUB menu expires much too quickly. Initially I assumed that this was a regression in GRUB. However, it is apparently a known regression in qemu-kvm. This was reported to openSUSE (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769138) and (judging from the openSUSE packaging) fixed in these two upstream commits:
