Description:
I used to have Windows along with Arch but then I erased Windows, so I didn't need Windows in the grub menu anymore. So I set grub-customizer not to display grub menu, disabled os-prober and timeout and saved the configuration. But despite my settings the grub menu is still being displayed and on top of that the timeout is still there - 4 seconds (initial timer set by me when I used to have dual boot). I clicked the Advanced settings button and discovered that grub_timeout is still 4 seconds (see the screenshot; sorry for the Bulgarian interface). I unchecked the check boxes at first and when that didn't help, I entered 0 (zero) manually for the timeout but that didn't help either. But the grub menu still remained visible along with the timeout. Additional info: * package version(s): 5.1.0-1 * config and/or log files etc. - screenshot of config attached * link to upstream bug report, if any Steps to reproduce: 1. Have dual boot with Windows. 2. Remove Windows from grub menu. 3. Disable displaying of grub menu. 4. Make timeout 0 seconds and update config. 5. Reboot. 6. You'll see grub menu and timeout are still displayed, despite your settings. |
This task depends upon
It sounds like grub-customizer didn't run grub-mkconfig. You could do that manually as a test (e.g. grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg)
Can you check, if you see anything out of the ordinary in the terminal, when doing the aforementioned steps after starting grub-customizer in a terminal?
I think that is intentional. At any rate, I believe this to be not a bug with the package, but most likely a usability problem.
Please feel free to report this upstream [1]. Thanks!
