Details:

gentoo x86 system (Intel P4)

Even if "timeout" and "default" options are set, boot waits for "enter" to be
pressed in order to boot. 

My grub.conf is:

------------------------------------------

default 0
timeout 30

title Gentoo Linux MOST RECENT
#:0 <-- type: 0 => linux, 1 => windows, 2 => other
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/hda3 vmalloc=256m

title Gentoo Linux PREVIOUS
#:0 <-- type: 0 => linux, 1 => windows, 2 => other
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz.old root=/dev/hda3 vmalloc=256m

title Change the colors
        #:2 <-- type: 0 => linux, 1 => windows, 2 => other
        color light-green/brown blink-red/blue
title Change the colors2
        #:2 <-- type: 0 => linux, 1 => windows, 2 => other
        color magenta/blue black/magenta

-----------------------------------------

this question has already been submited for a redhat system, reply was that
that version of grub was "to much modified" with respect to the original to
be considered (hope the gentoo release version does not fall in the same
caegory)
