Ubuntu 14.04 server - reboot (grub) hangs
Raw
etc-default-grub
problem: your server hangs on reboot
symptom: grub shows menu and waits for an input
> /etc/default/grub
contains the lines
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
Well, these options are deprecated!
Try this
> vi /etc/default/grub
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=2
and then
> update-grub
After next reboot your Ubuntu server should return to live automatically. ;-)
