I need help with RHEL 3 Update 4 AS on a Sun V20Z.
After installing RHEL3 and built the new kernel with
huge memory option; I rebooted the server. It went
thru the BIOS, and came up with the following message:
.....
GRUB loading Stage 2
Press any key to continue ...
If I don't hit any key, it will stay there for ever
If I hit a key, it will provide me with a choice of
3 different kernel, and automatically picks the first
kernel (which is OK) and reboot.
My question is:
How do I change the grub.conf file so that when I
reboot the server, it won't require any manual
intervention, such as: Press any key to continue?
Thanks in advance,
Tony
