It usually won't show if Linux Lite is the only operating system installed.  If you need it not to show, you can edit the grub file.  See the following link:  http://askubuntu.com/questions/111085/ho...ng-of-boot

I do not feel comfortable editing grub.cfg by hand. I know there is a grub mod tool but I do not know how to use it. Just for helping solve the problem this is the grub.cfg file:

Code:
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
# For full documentation of the options in this file, see:
#   info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -d 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

# Uncomment to enable BadRAM filtering, modify to suit your needs
# This works with Linux (no patch required) and with any kernel that obtains
# the memory map information from GRUB (GNU Mach, kernel of FreeBSD ...)
#GRUB_BADRAM="0x01234567,0xfefefefe,0x89abcdef,0xefefefef"

# Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only)
#GRUB_TERMINAL=console

# The resolution used on graphical terminal
# note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE
# you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'
#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480

# Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true

# Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries
#GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"

# Uncomment to get a beep at grub start
#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

Is there a way to fix this without editing grub.cfg

You can install Grub Customizer by copying the following lines into a terminal one at a time.  But really if you're already at the grub.cfg file, you can just change the 10 in the line "GRUB_TIMEOUT=10" to a 0, save the file, and run "sudo update-grub" in a terminal, and you'll be done with this.

Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grub-customizer

Grub Customizer is a great piece of software, that I wish was included with Linux Lite. I hope that will be considered some time. Has bailed me out a few times. the only suggestion I would add is that after you add Grub Customizer, remove the repository.
Linux Lite Control center > Software > Edit software Sources. Under the 'Other Software' tab, highlight it (danielrichter2007) & remove.

Changing it to a 0 did not work. Actually it made it worse.
