[Bug 444495] Re: Grub 2 1.97 Beta 4 Hidden Menu No Longer Works

[drs305]

Version grub-pc: 1.97~beta4-1ubuntu4

Grub2 would not hide menu with normal hidden settings (First section, attch grub.examples)
Added "GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true" to /etc/default/grub, which allows hidden menu and hidden timeout (Second section, attch grub.examples)
By adding the "GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true", it adds the following lines to grub.cfg, which I presume allow the menu to be hidden:
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###
if [ ${timeout} != -1 ]; then
  if sleep --verbose --interruptible 180 ; then
    set timeout=0
  fi
fi
### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###

So far, disabling the 30_os-prober is the only method I can use to hide
the menu on this laptop (32-bit, Karmic 9.10, general release iso, fresh
install)


Both sections of the attachment "grub.examples" contain the grub and grub.cfg contents.
