Start server after stuck at GRUB
I currently have Ubuntu Server 14.04 and sometimes when I reboot it gets stuck on grub selection without countdown. It is the same problem as here, but I want to fix it remotely because I am not home right now...
I know that it is a long shot, but is there any solution or workaround so that I can boot to my server without being physically there?
Thanks!

Add:
GRUB_RECORDFAIL_TIMEOUT = 15
in /etc/default/grub, and run "sudo update-grub". You can change the 15 to any arbitrary number of seconds that you like.
