    I have a few profiles on my notebook, which I use according to the type
    of network connection I want. Normally, I want the configuration for my
    home lan and have it set as the default profile in grub. I can then
    easily change profiles to another network connection. However, if I
    want to boot directly into another profile, I have to edit the Boot
    Options line, to change the profile. Using F3 to select a profile
    doesn't work. If I remove the default profile from grub, the F3 method
    now works. Is there any way to have a default profile and still be able
    to use F3 to select an alternate profile?

    tnx jk
