How to get the GRUB using virtualbox?

rated 0 times [ 44] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 71184 / 1 Year ago, fri, march 31, 2023, 3:56:41

I have ubuntu-12.04 on my virtualbox and I have two kernels in /boot (old and new). When I restart the vbox no grub appears to choose! and the result of cat /proc/cmdline still shows the old kernel is running.

I tried pressing shift but it also does not work!

You have to know that VirtualBox is just Virtual, so many things can be different.

Reboot your virtual machine and when you see Oracle's logo , click the screen (focus there) and then hold down Shift until Grub menu appears.
