I made all upgrades from 16.04 Ubuntu Mate to 22.04 successfully.
From the first upgrade I noticed that I can't see my Grub start menu.
Also I noticed that my system takes longer to startup and first it starts in command line with a prompt to login and then it enters in graphical environment.
Don't know if this is suspicious:
sudo cat /var/log/boot.log| grep GRUB
[sudo] password for cent:
Starting Record successful boot for GRUB...
[ OK ] Finished Record successful boot for GRUB.
Starting GRUB failed boot detection...
[ OK ] Finished GRUB failed boot detection.

Starting GRUB failed boot detection...
[ OK ] Finished GRUB failed boot detection.
Starting Record successful boot for GRUB...
[ OK ] Finished Record successful boot for GRUB.
Starting GRUB failed boot detection...

I thought that
sudo update-grub
would solve the problem but...it didn't!
Any ideas?
PS: this is not a dual boot system.
In case one needs this:
sudo cat /etc/default/grub
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

# info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'
