Hi, We have made a clean install minimal install of the ubuntu-9.10-server-i386. After the dirty power off (PC disconnected from the electricity when Ubuntu was working - no halt command issued before the electricity disconnecting) Grub2 stops in the menu and requires manual action (pressing the Enter key). We have found this a real pain for the server. Our point of view is server has to (always) start without any manual assistance. It was really not easy to find the solution <a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1373965">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1373965</a> We think even if Grub2 stops in the menu, it has to signalize somehow why. Or the server distro has to have different boot-up behavior than desktop. Regards Petr
