>Description:

Section 5.3.1. Loader Program Flow reads:

 Finally, by default, the loader issues a 10 second wait for keypresses,
 and boots the kernel if it is interrupted. If interrupted, the user is
 presented with a prompt which understands the easy-to-use command set,
 where the user may adjust variables, unload all modules, load modules,
 and then finally boot or reboot.

>How-To-Repeat:

RTFH :-) file:/usr/share/doc/handbook/boot-loader.html

>Fix:

I think there's a "not" missing here and it should read

 Finally, by default, the loader issues a 10 second wait for keypresses,
 and boots the kernel if it is not interrupted. ...
                               ^^^

Or maybe s/if it is not/unless/
