You are very welcome. Thank you for checking out my wiki. I was hoping it didn't have anything to do with EFI.
You should be able to get a screen just like the ones in my examples. And control the default in /etc/default/grub with GRUB_DEFAULT=number
And what is great is you never have to change that unless you remove or add an OS. That the main purpose of this wiki to make it "maintenance free".
Here you can see the number to put there by entering this in terminal:
I have mine set to Windows 7 (12) for my wife in case it reboots or something.Code:cavsfan@cavsfan-MS-7529:~$ grep -e "menuentry " -e "submenu" /boot/grub/grub.cfg | sed 's/^[ \t]*//' | cut -d "'" -f1,2 | nl --starting-line-number=0 0 menuentry "Precise Pangolin 12.04" { 1 menuentry "Precise Pangolin 12.04 (Recovery Mode)" { 2 menuentry "Quantal Quetzal 12.10" { 3 menuentry "Quantal Quetzal 12.10 (Recovery Mode)" { 4 menuentry "Raring Ringtail 13.04" { 5 menuentry "Raring Ringtail 13.04 (Recovery Mode)" { 6 menuentry "Saucy Salamander 13.10" { 7 menuentry "Saucy Salamander 13.10 (Recovery Mode)" { 8 menuentry "Trusty Tahr 14.04" { 9 menuentry "Trusty Tahr 14.04 (Recovery Mode)" { 10 menuentry "Linux Mint 13 Nadia" { 11 menuentry "Linux Mint 13 Nadia (Recovery Mode)" { 12 menuentry "Windows 7" {
Good luck!
I just noticed that in Trusty Tahr 14.04 the font is in a different directory. So, to produce the font enter this:
and it will still give these meaningless messages as before:Code:sudo grub-mkfont --output=/boot/grub/DejaVuSansMono.pf2 \ --size=24 /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSansMono.ttf
The wiki will be updated when Trusty Tahr is at final release.Code:Unknown gsub font feature 0x63636d70 (ccmp) Unknown gsub font feature 0x646c6967 (dlig) Unsupported substitution flag: 0x9 Unsupported substitution flag: 0x9 Unknown gsub font feature 0x6c6f636c (locl) Unknown gsub font feature 0x6c6f636c (locl) Unsupported substitution flag: 0x9
Since Raring Ringtail Ubuntu 13.04 reaches it's End of Life Date on January 27th I am going to pull that part out of the wiki. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ub...ry/002367.html
It shouldn't take too long. I hope this doesn't inconvenience any one.

I just left the pictures with Raring as examples. But, the Raring Ringtail part of the wiki is now gone.
