      Hello

      First of all, I am french and prefered to write in english because this method is not difficult to understand 🙂

      I found a basic way to deactivate menu selection on startup (selection between normal or verbose)

      Recalbox - boot without any linux progress and launch video splash
      Recalbox (verbose) - show linux progress and launch video splash

      On my case, I use Recalbox on PC but this can be done from SD or USB stick

      From HDD or SSD

      If you already use Recalbox and avoid mount HDD - SSD on your PC
      connect to your machine via SSH

      mount -o remount,rw /boot

      cd /boot

      ls

      EFI hardware.log
      System Volume Information recalbox-backup.conf
      asound.state recalbox-boot.conf
      boot update
      boot.lst


      if you have configured your machine on UEFI

      cd EFI

      ls

      BOOT

      cd BOOT/

      ls

      bootia32.efi bootx64.efi grub.cfg


      if you don't have your machine configured on UEFI

      cd boot

      ls

      grub initrd.gz linux recalbox

      cd grub

      ls

      grub.cfg

      grub.cfg is the file about menu selection and time for selection

      to edit this file

      nano grub.cfg

      you will see this
      set default="0"
      set timeout="5"

      set menu_color_normal=cyan/blue
      set menu_color_highlight=white/blue

      menuentry "Recalbox" {
      set gfxpayload=auto
      linux /boot/linux label=RECALBOX console=tty3 quiet loglevel=0
      initrd /boot/initrd.gz
      }

      menuentry "Recalbox (verbose)" {
      set gfxpayload=auto
      linux /boot/linux label=RECALBOX console=tty1 loglevel=7
      initrd /boot/initrd.gz
      }

      replace value set timeout="5" by "0"

      make CTRL+X to leave
      push Y to confirm save
      press ENTER to confirm the name and exit nano

      reboot your system to see the change

      have a good game 🙂
