Because I dual boot Linux, after a new install, I always get around to changing grubs timeout to at least 20 seconds. In Manjaro I use this command: sudo nano /boot/grub/grub.cfg export theme if [ x$feature_timeout_style = xy ] ; then set timeout_style=hidden set timeout=20 # Fallback hidden-timeout code in case the timeout_style # feature is # unavailable. elif sleep --interruptible 5 ; then set timeout=0 fi # END /etc/grub.d/00_header
