Yes, this occurs with ALL subsequent versions of Ubuntu using 'grub2' but
I have circumvented this by reverting to 'legacy grub' which is far easier to
customize, with a very useful 'timeout  -1' capability in 'menu.lst' that yields
a startup menu indefinite pause that allows consideration of what to select.

Thankfully 'legacy grub' hasn't yet been deleted from the repository but I
guess that its days are numbered.

I hope that this answers your question.

  Apologies for the delay in response, we get more reports than we have
  manpower to work on.

  Did this ever occur in lucid or later?
