However I can not actually see the GRUB menu at boot time. I see nothing until the server begins to boot and then I can see everything. However the grub menu is absent entirely.
My config looks like so :
..
serial --unit=0 --speed=9600 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1 terminal -timeout=30 serial console
put these two lines at the beginning and fix the --timeout typo :)
This config works for me: <cut> serial --unit=0 --speed=38400 terminal --timeout=10 serial console default=0 timeout=5
