Customizing Grub2 with grub-customizer

A re-post (copy-paste actually) of a good post on how to customize grub2 menu. I am re-posting as I have lost many good posts, as the sites I linked to had become defunct, losing out on good content.

The tool in question is called Grub Customizer, created by Daniel Richter. He’s provided a PPA to make installing the tool quick and easy.

Open a terminal window (Ctrl+Alt+T or Applications > Accessories > Terminal) and type in the following commands.


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



grub-customizer should show in the Unity search now (in Ubuntu)


or you can open it from command line by typing


gksudo grub-customizer



click on and edit away...!!!
