I try to access the boot menu, where you can choose a kernel and,

I checked /boot/grub/grub.conf and I have hiddenmenu in it. But the
back-up, /boot/grub/grub.conf~ dates back to August and has hiddenmenu
in it too. Since I accessed the boot menu since August, I suppose this
is not the problem.


The "timeout=0" starts the boot process without delay. Set it to a
higher number.
