No GRUB menu in Lucid server??
 
I installed Lucid server to a Dell R210. I configured grub during the install process and I see /boot/grub/grub.cfg is fully populated. However, when I boot my machine no grub menu appears. How do I get the grub menu to appear?

Thanks in advance.
Gary

Edit /etc/default/grub (as root)
Set the GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 or however many seconds you need
Comment the line GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 by adding # as the first character
Save the file
As root, [B]run update-grub
reboot

Did you install GRUB to the MBR or the boot sector of your Linux partition?
