Upgrade to 20.04 from 18.04 GRUB menu hidden

Ask Ubuntu Asked by MesVre on December 1, 2021

I’m quite new to Ubuntu world and installed Ubuntu 18.04 (dual boot with Windows 10); all good, no problems, all works.

When upgraded to 20.04, i don’t see the GRUB menu, just 10 seconds of nothing, then Ubuntu 20.04 starts (with no other problem). I can’t choose what to start, which is really annoying.

I tried fixing GRUB with the installation LiveUSB, but could not.
I edited /etc/default/grub at the line by changing
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=”hidden” to add “menu” but that didn’t work.

I tried ESC during the 10 second blackout, and get the menu but nothing.

I then erased all of Ubuntu 20.04 and reinstalled 20.04 from the beginning, only to still get the same problem.

Then tryed the uBuntu 19.10 and again same problem.

So I got back to the 20.04 because i want really get it to work properly.

Does anyone knows how to fix it? Why i can’t get what to run with the 20.04?

Hold the Shift key while it's booting up.

Same problem though I installed Ubuntu 20.04 instead of upgrading.

A way for that: edit /etc/default/grub to change GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden to GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu and remove # in front of #GRUB_TERMINAL=console. Finally, run sudo update-grub in terminal
