in other distributions there is no Xen menu showing up for 5 seconds after GRUB, how can i disable it or shorten the timeout?

there is also the boot option to show a plymouth screen like in Qubes with a loading bar, or terminal output. how can i make it show the terminal output like this picture

thanks.

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

and change

GRUB_TIMEOUT=5 to 0
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved to 0
Search rhgb in the GRUB_CMDLINE, remove it. you can also remove quiet for more boot log.

if you boot with uefi
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/grub.cfg

bios legacy
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
