In Fedora 33 is the only way to get the menu to permanently display to edit /etc/grub.d/12_menu_auto_hide and change the timeout_style and timeout settings within the else condition for the fastboot check? I currently have the menu permanently displayed as a result of making this modification.
Yep. I've had a "big hammer" I've used for a while, run automatically after dnf to reapply any changes I've made to system files I'm not intended to edit. Fixing the grub scripts so not a single one can ever set hide to true is one of my big hammer changes :-).
Thanks Tom. I did find an article on the net that appeared to be from the designer of this process, where he provided a method to display the menu without needing to edit any files, but that only worked for the next boot. Apparently the process has now been designed to only display the menu if the last boot failed.
