HOW TO Edit your Grub menu

1 Install Grub Customizer Open a Terminal window and type the following commands: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install grub-customizer Once done, launch Grub Customizer by clicking ‘Menu’ and searching for ‘Grub’.

2 Change defaults Switch to the ‘General settings’ tab. From here you can change the default OS via the predefined drop-down menu, or select ‘previously booted entry’. You can also change the delay before the default entry is selected from this tab too – untick ‘Boot default entry after’ to pause Grub until an OS is selected.

3 Change Grub’s look To make a few changes to how Grub looks, switch to the Appearance settings tab where you can prettify the Grub menu by changing its colour scheme, fonts, default resolution and even apply a nice background image (Note: the image needs to be a PNG). When you’ve finished making your changes, click the ‘Save’ button to update Grub.
