I recently installed CentOS 5.1 on a DL71 ASI notebook.
After my yum update the timeout parameter in /boot/grub/grub.conf file
has no effect. It sits at the grub screen forever unless I press the
enter key to select a kernel, at which point it will boot.
Any help or suggestions to fix this would be much appreciated
