			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this post, I will show you how to install grub 2 with themes so that you can replace the standard text-based grub menu with something that looks a bit nicer. This tutorial will use code which is under development, so it may be best not to use on an important machine. We will actually replace grub with something called burg, which is a developmental branch of grub.</p>
<p><span id="more-818"></span><br />
Its quite easy to do now in Ubuntu 11.04, really just one step:</p>
<div class="snippet"><pre><code>sudo add-apt-repository ppa:n-muench/burg 
sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get install burg burg-themes</code></pre></div>
<p>However if you are using 10.04 or 10.10, follow the instructions below:</p>
<p>First, enable the repository for burg by editing your /etc/apt/sources.list file to include the following for Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick):</p>
<div class="snippet">
<div class="snippet-shell"><pre><code>deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu maverick main 
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu maverick main</code></pre></div>
</div>
<p>or use the following for Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid)</p>
<div class="snippet">
<div class="snippet-shell"><pre><code>deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu lucid main 
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu lucid main</code></pre></div>
</div>
<p>Next, (optional) to remove any warnings about gpg signatures, enter the following commands:</p>
<div class="snippet">
<div class="snippet-shell"><pre><code>gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 55708F1EE06803C5
gpg --export --armor 55708F1EE06803C5 | sudo apt-key add -</code></pre></div>
</div>
<p>Alternatively, if you find the pgp serer gives you an error, you can try this one:</p>
<div class="snippet"><code>gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.stinkfoot.us.pgp.net --recv-keys 55708F1EE06803C5</code></div>
<p>Then we need to update apt and install burg:</p>
<div class="snippet">
<div class="snippet-shell"><pre><code>sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install burg-pc burg burg-themes</code></pre></div>
</div>
<p>This will prompt you to select several options along the way, so far I&#8217;ve just selected the default options since they seem to be detected from your existing grub install. The important one is to select the correct disk (Note: I&#8217;ve only tested in a non-raid system, so I don&#8217;t know how it will behave with this setup).</p>
<p>On the next restart, we should see a graphical grub menu, something like this:<br />
<center>
<div class="image"><a href="http://www.jasonernst.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/graphical-grub.jpg"><img src="http://www.jasonernst.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/graphical-grub-300x225.jpg" alt="Ubuntu 10.04 Graphical Grub" title="graphical-grub" width="300" height="225" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-824" /></a>
<p style="text-align:center;">Ubuntu 10.04 with Graphical Grub Template</p>
</div>
<p></center></p>
<p>By default you will probably get the ubuntu template, and you can change the template by pressing &#8216;t&#8217; during the grub screen. It should also remember which one was last selected.</p>
<p>Note: I have experienced some problems with a fresh install of ubuntu 10.04 and SLI video cards. Burg&#8217;s graphics mode seems to confuse ubuntu and it gets stuck on boot. If this happens, you can boot in recovery mode and install the restricted nvidia driver. Then on next boot everything should be fine.</p>
<p>Note 2: Occasionally, when Ubuntu updates, grub may install over your burg installation. In order to get burg back, you need to issue the following command: </p>
<div class="snippet">
<div class="snippet-shell"><code>sudo burg-install /dev/sda</code></div>
</div>
<p>where /dev/sda is the partition you want to install burg onto.</p>
<p>Note 3: You might find you have some extra entries that you want to remove, for example the recovery entries or whatever else. You can either edit the burg.cfg file directly located at /boot/burg/burg.cfg and or you can edit the files in /etc/default/burg and /etc/burg.d/. If you use the second choice, you will need to run:</p>
<div class="snippet">
<div class="snippet-shell"><code>sudo update-burg</code></div>
</div>
<p>in order to regenerate the new burg.cfg file.</p>
