Grub update warning in Ubuntu 14.04

rated 0 times [ 45] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 34512 / 2 Years ago, tue, september 27, 2022, 12:25:49

I tried to update Grub so I run:

sudo update-grub



Generating grub configuration file ...

Warning: Setting GRUB_TIMEOUT to a non-zero value when GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT is set is no longer supported.

What exactly this warning wants to be changed? (I upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 before)

This is my /etc/default/grub file:

GRUB_DEFAULT="0"

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT="0"

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET="true"

GRUB_TIMEOUT="10"

GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`"

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

You can't use the GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT setting and the GRUB_TIMEOUT setting at the same time. This is true even when the hidden timeout is set to 0.

You can comment out the line that you don't want.

For example:

#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0

After saving the change, run sudo update-grub again.
