Title:
"Ubuntu" entry above the "Advanced options for Ubuntu" does not boot,
but go into the "Advanced options for Ubuntu" and the first line boots
Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
I installed Ubuntu on AlienWare MX51 but in order to boot Ubuntu
properly, I cannot simply wait 10 seconds and let the system
automatically boot Ubuntu. I have to use the keyboard to enter
"Advanced options for Ubuntu", then select the first entry there, and
the system would boot properly. If I just wait 10 seconds, boot hangs.
I have copied out the two grub.cfg sections into two files and did a
diff. It appears that the submenu entry simply has two more lines that
echo Loading Linux and Loading initrd. Very odd.
This is an UEFI system. SecureBoot is disabled.
1} uname -a output:
Linux earth 3.5.0-27-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 25 19:58:17 UTC
2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
2} dpkg -l | grep grub:
ii grub2-common 2.00-7ubuntu11
amd64 GRand Unified Bootloader (common files for version 2)
3} What I expect to happen:
Wait 10s and the system automatically boots into 3.5.0-27
4) Instead what happened:
Hit down arrow to "Advanced options for Ubuntu", get to the submenu
where the first entry is 3.5.0-27, boot there, and it works!
