    Since at least 2 users experienced the same problem I've gone back to the original post and emphasized that the title does not include the "on /dev/sdXX" portion.

    Thanks for the feedback!
    Back to Xorg...

    The laptop also had Jaunty on it, as a slightly desperate solution to getting it to fix itself up onto the available network, using a disk we had handy. Then we tried 10.04 Lucid again. It was not a good day

    Re: Grub 2 Title Tweaks Thread

    First - my apologies for not having replied sooner; I have more than one (or two) computer(s), and I try to use them all regulary, which means I don't use this PC, with Ubuntu, every day/time.

    -oo-

    Whatever I try, I don't seem to get "Windows Vista (loader) (on /dev/sda1)" changed into "Windows XP Home"

    Here is my original 30_os-prober file
    (Do you really need the entire file? All 260 lines?
    It's Chinese to me (I see GNU/Linux is not for the average Windows user I mean, just look how much "trouble" a n00b like me has with changing one, small, single word ("Vista")...)

    Skara Brae,

    Your 30_os-prober is a bit different than the one I am working with. It already has a direct entry for "Windows Vista" which makes it likely this file was modified and not the original. But that's okay. We should be able to make one change to get it to say "XP". The green text is the modified area. The red is the title change.

    Make sure you have a copy of your original 30_os-prober file (and that it is unexecutable), then copy this file into /etc/grub.d/ to replace it.

    Run "sudo update-grub" and hopefully you will see "Windows XP" as it finds your 'other' OS.

    *Skara Brae reporting back in...*

    Yes!

    drs305, I copied the coloured text in 'your' 30_os-prober into mine: now it says "Windows XP Home" instead of Windows Vista (I added the "Home").

    I only added those few lines (and commented out another part) and that's it? Why couldn't I do that myself??
    Well, don't we feel foolish...

    I did not change anything in my original 30_os-prober (I didn't even know about the new GRUB version), so it was the original. If I had changed it, then I would have mentioned that, of course: no use messing something up and then asking for help on a forum, while not telling that I would have messed up.

    In any case, now the GRUB menu on my machine looks the way it should be. XP is not Vista, and I kind of am a perfectionist

    drs305,
    I thank you very much.

    -oo-

    I still have Windows, because there are a few Windows-only programs that I really don't want to be without (like "PhotoPAINT" from COREL; The GIMP is _no_ alternative, I'd rather work with MS Paint than with The GIMP, no offense). Those few programs are the only reason why I still have "Wintendo" (as a guy from IT at work calls it).

    Microsoft Windows is the most unreliable thing I have ever worked with in my entire life. I "hate" it. What a difference (both) GNU/Linux and OS X are.

    Press shift while grub loads so you see the menu again - choose ubuntu -
    Code:
    gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub
    Do the changes - save and close then run

    Code:
    sudo update-grub

    Re: Grub 2 Title Tweaks Thread

    Well, I seem to have hit a snag. I want my GRUB2 menu to have two entries: One that says simply "Ubuntu" and one that says "Windows 7"

    I've got the one that says "Windows 7" down pat.


    But the one that should say "Ubuntu" says "Ubuntu, with Linux false"

    Can anyone help me figure it out?

    Currently, my 10_linux script looks like this:

    Re: Grub 2 Title Tweaks Thread

    Added: Go to Post 112 for the solution to ssaint04's request.

    I imported your 10_linux file into my system and ran update-grub. It generated an error message about "quiet" but the problem really lies in this line:
    linux_entry "${OS}" false\
    Change it to the following, adding a space between false and \. Then run "sudo update-grub" and see if that fixes things for you:
    linux_entry "${OS}" false \
