When booting with GRUB, normally the menu showing several kernel
versions and/or kernel command lines appears to choose from.  If no
selection is made within a few seconds (default is 5s IIRC), the
default entry is booted.

I'd prefer to be dropped into the GRUB command line instead of that
menu.  But still I'd like to have the timeout after which a default
entry is boot if no command is entered at the prompt.

Can that be configured in GRUB?
