Think the best and easiest solution for that is reducing the wait time for grub to 0:
in terminal:
sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst

find the line that starts "timeout", then change the number after it (should be 10 or something) to 0

find the line "#hiddenmenu" and uncomment it by removing the hash (#).

Reboot and see if that is what you want.

Hello

You can edit the "timeout" line in /boot/grub/menu.lst

Type the following command in a terminal (applications -> accessories -> terminal)

gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst

Set it to 0, save the file

and you won't see the grub menu.
