GRUB

And want to change it to something beautiful just like the one below ?

BRUG

Well doing this is very easy , all you need to do is to install BRUG (Brand-new Universal loadeR from GRUB ) .

Now I am going to tell you how to do it .

If you are using older version of Ubuntu (i.e older that 10.04) then follow the below procedure .

1. First of you need to add repository to your

/etc/apt/sources.list

file . So open your terminal and issue the following commands :

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

(This will open a files in gedit )
2. Now copy paste the following in that file :

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu lucid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu lucid main

3. Now add the gpg key with the following commands .

gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 55708F1EE06803C5
gpg --export --armor 55708F1EE06803C5 | sudo apt-key add - 

4. Now install BRUG using following commands .

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install

Now if you are using Ubuntu 10.04 then follow the following procedure

1. Just issue the following commands and you are done :

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bean123ch/burg
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install burg-pc burg burg-themes burg-emu

Now restart your computer and check out your brand new grub .

If you want to see your new grub without restarting then issue the following command

sudo burg-emu -D
