There should be a plain text file: /boot/grub/menu.lst. Before doing
anything else, make a copy for backup purposes. Then open it in your
favorite text editor as root. On Ubuntu that would be "sudo
gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst." You can also open it in a terminal with
"sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst."
You should find a section that says:
## hiddenmenu
# Hides the menu by default (press ESC to see the menu)
hiddenmenu
Comment out the "hiddenmenu" line so it says
#hiddenmenu
Save the menu.lst file and reboot.
