timeout=0 is a very bad default! I just got bitten by this.. I have a Dell R410 server and F13 doesn't detect the disks of it.. I have to start the F13 installer with "iommu=soft" boot option, and then the disks are detected. Now after installation I should add that "iommu=soft" option to the kernel from grub menu, but since the timeout is zero I can't do it! Computer will boot straight to Fedora and get stuck since the disks aren't detected.. Please fix the timeout to 5 or 10 seconds for F14. This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Created attachment 412548 [details] grub.conf file Description of problem: After installing fedora 13RC2 with windows installed, grub does not show a list of which OS to select to boot. It boots straight to fedora. Reason being timeout is set to 0 (timeout=0). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): grub-0.97-64.fc13.i686 How reproducible: installing f13 with another os installed. For me only on windows. Steps to Reproduce: 1.shown above 2. 3. Actual results: timeout=0 Expected results: timeout=10 Additional info: I do think new users will heavily complain about fedora having 'deleted' their windows partition and deter them from using the new fedora. Thus i put the priority to high if there is a possibility to fix this prior to the official release.
