Ubuntu addict and loving it
I couldn't take that light theme for very long. I just basically wanted to prove to myself that with a background picture you could use black/black as either the normal or highlight font.
I prefer darker pictures/fonts.
Here is my current Grub2 screen on Raring:

Hey people;
I am unable to effect any change to the grub boot menu. No changes made in /etc/default/grub or to any of the scripts in /etc/grub.d are reflected in the boot menu.
After going around and around with this for a week, I am at my wit's end and looking for advise.
I am triple booting -> raring, ubuntu 12.04 and lubuntu 12.04;
raring is a MINIMAL install with xfce4 for the desktop environment fairly fresh install and this is my initial boot menu item that goaded me to attempt to change the boot menu: Choosing to use Cavsfab's excellent wiki guide:
Initially I was not able to update the kernel, however I now have kernel 3.8.0-22-generic installed:ubuntu' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class
ubuntu, with linux 3.8.0-21-generic os 'gnulin->
--class ubuntu --class gnu-linux -->
After following the guide; here is my results and system set up:sysop@1304mini:~$ uname -r
3.8.0-22-generic

I have removed grub from the lubuntu install on sda7 --- grub remains installed on ubuntu 12.04 sdc1;
Resolution mode 1600x900 verified by grub's "vbeinfo";
Numerous times rewritten the grub.cfg file ("sudo update-grub');
Hours and hours spent trolling sites to understand why/what is failing, been over and over the scrips and guidance, perceiving no errors, making some change - update grub - reboot.... no change at all to grub's boot menu.
For sure /boot/grub/grub/cfg is executing, else would not have a boot menu at all (???) as /boot/grub/grub.cfg supposedly executes upon boot-up !
-------
Request advise on what I am not seeing and/or overlooking ! ;
What can I do to see the execution process of /boot/grub/grub.cfg, How can I verify that the variables in the script are "set" ?
Why can I not effect a change in the boot grub menu ??
help and guidance is muchly appreciated

Hi!, Bashing_om,
Without going through your boot/grub/grub.cfg file in detail, it looks to me that your are editing the files in one installation, say Raring, whilst the grub menu and boot sequence are controlled by grub in another installation, probably 12.04 on another drive. Edit: The last command in this Post will tell you what is actually the current state.
If that is the case, what you need to do is to boot the drive and installation you want to be in control and run:To confirm the installation had no error:Code:sudo grub-install /dev/sdx # where 'sdx' is the drive in operation, not the partition sudo update-grub sudo reboot:You may also need to runCode:sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sdxChao!, bogan.Code:sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sdx # or: sudo grub-install grub-pc # space-bar to select drive, tab to OK, enter to accept sudo debconf-show grub-pc # will show you full details.

@ bogan, Hi !
Appreciate the input. and the assist even more.... But, I am aware of and have done so MANY times... 'Nother grub as primary had occurred to me and I removed grub from my Lubuntu install in sda7, Since my last go-around with sda1 [raring](what I want as primary) after running the grub install routine for sda, I have not gone back and did any thing on the sda7 (lubuntu) or sdc1 (ubuntu) installations.
bk
After going round and a-round with - not able to effect a change to the booting grub menu - I am frustrated and continue to be mystified ! My thinking process has become cloudy and missfocused. So, I appreciate a fresh perspective on this one !
What I am currently considering is:
Backup the present /boot/grub/grub.cfg file;
Make a "custom" menu entry in that grub/cfg file (prepared to have to get back in the system via other means), reboot to see if THAT has an effect.
And/or -- not knowing if the capability yet exists this early in the boot process -- see if I can put an echo statement to redirect output to a file (nice if I can figure out how to get the variable contents to this file).
I am going to run through the process again, and will advise.
again, thanks

Please compare an output on a known stable system to mine; 4 of the entries in my output are "suspect" to me.
---------------
Right now I just do not know;
1. dd out my boot sector and try again ?
2. Is because I did not (re-)install grub onto my sda7 install of lubuntu the cause of this effect ?
3. Some how is my grub on sdc -ubuntu 12,04 - an issue ? How ? it is not mounted !// albeit in past attempts I did mount all my systems and run the "update-grub" routine, could this have complicated my sloppyation in that this corrupted my boot sector on sda ?
-------------
I would certainly appreciate any insight and guidance on a remedy/
with all due respect

Let me see if I can come up with what you need to do.

If you want Raring to be your default you need to boot into Raring and enter sudo grub-install /dev/sda and sudo update-grub.
Place a single picture the size of your resolution in /boot/grub/. It can contain only 1 picture and if you want to change it, you have to remove the other one while making the change.
It can be any type of picture file as the code looks for the existance of a background file in 05_debian_theme looks like this:
Be aware that some pictures just do not work. They will be listed in the output of sudo update-grub but they will not show at boot time. It has happened to me and I just chose another picture.Code:case "${1}" in *.jpg|*.JPG|*.jpeg|*.JPEG) reader="jpeg";; *.png|*.PNG) reader="png";; *.tga|*.TGA) reader="tga";; *) return 3;; # Unknown image type. esac
By having a picture there you can set your font colors in etc/grub.d//05_debian_theme after line 114 (See the Editing /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme part in the wiki)
You know never make any changes to /boot/grub/grub.cfg right.
Make these changes to your /etc/default/grub file gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub

Cavsfan;
Thank you for your time and effort. In regards to your last directive I have complied. Starting with a "clean" slate, making the edits; the result remains that my boot grub menu remains unchanged.
This is not to imply that there is any fault in your excellent tutorial. It boils down to I have a fault in my system and to this time I have not isolated it.
I presently do not have the knowledge to find this fault, though I keep pressing on.
Background:
Recently I had Ubuntu 10.04 standard desk-top install, ubuntu 12.04 standard desk-top install and lubuntu 12.04 standard desk-top install;
all booting with no issue on a standard grub menu.
At 10.04's EOL I prepared to end 10.04 and set up for whatever I was going to install in it's place.
GParted: deleted all the 10.04 partitions, and in their place I made 3 smaller partitions to house 13.04 and at that time I decided to do a "minimal"install.
The new install went with out an issue, smooth as one would want;
Rebooted: The grub boot menu in respect to the new raring install was presented in an unfamiliar syntax, but still worked to boot raring up.
installed xorg, xfce4 for the DE - no issue
installing google-chrome I encountered "authentication" issues, found there had been no .Xauthority file generated nor was the XAUTHORITY variable set. I worked through that;
Found I could not run a graphical application with root's access, installing "gksudo" resolved that one.
Now I am back to fixing the grub boot menu ...have been at this for a few weeks and nothing I do effects that boot menu.
The boot menu is fully functional, just no indication of which kernel I am booting.
Kinda pleased with my install of 13.04 ...got all ,less the menu, set up and I feel good about it. Now I feel good about my system and all I do and can do with it... a bit of pride perhaps on my part -> but while I was trying to doctor my boot menu, how bout the eye candy to show it off ??
I am unable to change anything on the grub boot menu from what was the initial setting when installed. And yes I am in a serious learning mode. I have done lots of homework to the point that I want to know how /boot/grub/grub.cfg is parsed as well as what tools I can make at my disposal to understand what is not taking place.
/boot/grub/grub.cfg is supposed to be executed at boot up, but is it ? (for 1 question)
"sudo apt-get install grub"'s install wizard balks at a destination device, and certain lines in "debconf's" output I wonder about (more homework); do I need to zero out the disk's boot sector and (re-)install (for 2nd question)

This is where I stand now with my newly generated grub.cfg file:

Forum questions are to be like dead men "one to the box" but my three questions I consider all related to a single issue -> why can I not alter the boot grub menu ?
all help remains hugely appreciated.
Ubuntu addict and loving it
You definitely do not want to install Grub 1 with this command sudo apt-get install grub.
What is the output of this on Raring: grub-install -v.
It should look like this:
Always make sure you enter sudo update-grub after you have made any changes to any of the grub files.Code:cavsfan@cavsfan-MS-7529:~$ grub-install -v grub-install (GRUB) 2.00-13ubuntu3
Keep in mind that when you get down to have just what is in your 06_custom file displaying at bootup the most recently installed kernel is what you will boot up with.
It is not the highest number but, the most recently installed kernel.
Can you post the contents of your /etc/grub.d/06_custom file?
Can you also post the output of this command
I noticed that in Precise 12.04 you have 3 kernels. You only need to retain two so you could enter this while in Precise:Code:grep -e "menuentry " -e "submenu" /boot/grub/grub.cfg | sed 's/^[ \t]*//' | cut -d "'" -f1,2 | nl
This is not critical but, it will free up about 200+MB of disk space.
Code:sudo apt-get purge linux-headers-3.2.0-41 linux-headers-3.2.0-41-generic linux-image-3.2.0-41-generic
