Guest5317Hello all, It would be nice to have some discussion going around changing of default values of GRUB timeout and it's style to accommodate for image deployment on bare metal nodes and cases where vm deployment fails and needs troubleshooting: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/diskimage-builder/+/93768408:41
clarkbI think JayF and/or ianw may haev input on that in particular15:46
JayFWell, it's not exactly just for BM, it's really for machines where you might have console access to debug15:47
JayFwhich I think in cloud use cases is more the exception than the rule but IMBW15:47
JayFI'm like, -0 to changing the default, but it's a weak opinion. If the default was what is proposed and someone wanted to make it hidden/shorter, I'd probably be -0 too just because the churn for users isn't worth the default change15:47
JayFThink about it this way: anyone who expects the current behavior and doesn't have config will now have a 4 second boot delay on all their things to troubleshoot, which is non-ideal. 15:50
JayFthose 4 seconds can be a nontrivial % of overall boot time in VM scenarios15:51
