This is irritating: I've got a server I just upgraded to 5.4, then rebooted, only to discover that it just *sits* there at the grub boot menu. I looked at grub.conf, and uncommented hiddenmenu (which should have been done long ago).
It *still* sits there when I reboot. Any clues, folks?

Try labelling root as the actual drive, not using the LABEL as above. In other words, something like this:
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet
Otherwise, your grub.conf is exactly like mine, and it works without issue here.
Just tried, no joy: *still* sits at the chosen menu item. And yeah, it's identical to our other systems. It's as though grub isn't seeing hiddenmenu.
