Hi All,

Below is what i needed for a customized USB boot menu
While booting from the USB, a boot menu should appear if any key is pressed
with a few seconds timeout (this is what we have currently). the menu should
have two options

   1. Boot
   2. Boot from local drive

If user selects option 1, then it should show message 'booting to Graphics
mode ...' with few seconds timeout, if user presses any key then another
menu should appear, having two options as

   1. Graphics mode
   2. Text mode

Upon user selection it should boot to the desired mode.

I tried to do this using simple menu system commands but no success.

Can anyone guide me to the right direction?


Regards,
