I forgot asking naively how to boot safely to the grub menu.
When the system starts booting, the grub menu entries appear on screen.
After a timeout (default 5 sec) the default entry is selected and the
boot sequence continues. For details, here is the grub manual:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html>.
Extract from the manual:
Valid keys in /etc/default/grub are as follows:
‘GRUB_DEFAULT’
The default menu entry. This may be a number, in which case it identifies
the Nth entry in the generated menu counted from zero, or the title of a menu
entry, or the special string ‘saved’. Using the title may be useful if you want
to set a menu entry as the default even though there may be a variable number
of entries before it.
‘GRUB_TIMEOUT’
Boot the default entry this many seconds after the menu is displayed,
unless a key is pressed. The default is ‘5’. Set to ‘0’ to boot immediately
without displaying the menu, or to ‘-1’ to wait indefinitely.
