Public bug reported:
KDEneon LTS user edition 5.12, Release 18.04
grub-common 2.02-2ubuntu8.10 from Ubuntu updates
Since latest update near the end of Jan. 2019 (29th?), grub menu has 30
second delay every reboot as though recordfail is set. It did not do
this before the update.
After messing with grubenv and recordfails settings, I found this
paragraph in 00_header in 18.04 that is not in 16.04:
if lsefi; then
set timeout=30
if [ x$feature_timeout_style = xy ] ; then
set timeout_style=menu
fi
fi
Note "timeout=30" which is the same as the recordfail timeout. As a
test, I edited /boot/grub/grub.cfg and changed the 30 to 17 and sure
enough, that's the source of the timeout.
Here's the paragraph from 00_header:
if lsefi; then set timeout=${GRUB_RECORDFAIL_TIMEOUT:-30}
if [ x\$feature_timeout_style = xy ] ; then
set timeout_style=menu
fi
fi
One odd thing is the 00_header file is from Jan 9th but this bug has
just appeared so it must be related to grub-common not the the header
file.
