I had a problem with GRUB last week, it seemed that 'timeout' didn't
work. I also noted that I had the same problem with LILO and even when
starting a live-cd.
When I unplugged the keyboard I had no problem! As you can imagine the
problem disappeared when I bought a new keyboard.
The strange fact was that the only way in which I found the problem was
when booting. After the boot process the keyboard worked fine.
Maybe your problem is somehow similar?
