[SOLVED] No boot options menu

[gold_finger]

Once you plug your Windows drive back in and boot back into Linux Lite, run sudo update-grub in a terminal.  That will add Windows to the grub menu and change the /etc/default/grub file so that it now displays the menu on startup.

If you want to make the change manually before adding Windows, I believe (going from memory only - so could be wrong) that all you need to do is:

Open /etc/default/grub with text editor as root

Code:

gksu leafpad /etc/default/grub

Change this line

Code:

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0

To this (just stick a "#" at beginning)

Code:

#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0

Save file, close text editor; then update grub in terminal

Code:

sudo update-grub

Close terminal and reboot.
