Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I am not able to view the GRUB2 menu in my monitor...There is a small Green Box with the message "Hz?" ..I think GRUB2 is not able to determine monitor refresh rate...
The monitor is good as the OS loads properly.....Currently , since I am a regular user of linux I know the menu entries of GRUB2 ...For instance WIN is the 4 th entry Linux is first entry and so on..
Due to the display not there still I am able to boot with the help of arrow count..For Linux I just press "Enter" when the Hz? is floating around , I press Down arrow 4 times and press <enter> to boot windows
I am glad it solved that easy. I would have guessed wrong. You did not mention it this happened on a fresh install, if you had replaced your monitor, tweaked grub or upgraded a module. To be honest I thought it might have been the hidden menu or timeout count.
