Title:
  Grub menu flashes and disappears

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  A test netbook had Windows 7 and Kubuntu 12.4 on it.
  A fresh install of ubuntu 12.4 has replaced Windows 7.
  Grub2 now only flashes briefly and loads the default OS

  Both OS have the same name in Grub, but are on different partitions
  (sda1 and sda8).

  Repairing Grub, un-hiding the menu, setting a long timeout, pressing
  keys, nothing works. The only way to switch OS is to edit the boot
  menu.
