while doing an upgrade there is a console prompt by a grub package that is causing a hang in AWS EC2:


A new version of /boot/grub/menu.lst is available, but the version installed currently has been locally modified. │
│ │
│ What would you like to do about menu.lst? │
│ │
│ install the package maintainer's version │
│ keep the local version currently installed │
│ show the differences between the versions │
│ show a side-by-side difference between the versions │
│ show a 3-way difference between available versions │
│ do a 3-way merge between available versions (experimental) │
│ start a new shell to examine the situation │
│ │
│ │
│ <Ok>

pre-feeding a carriage return does not work around this.
is there a way to bypass prompts like this to allow background upgrades?
