    Re: SCRIPT: GrubED - GUI Grub editing

    Great script Tomosaur! It worked for me perfectly in Ubuntu 6.10, I thought I was going to have to try and alter the grub file manually, loads of cool features i never would have worked out how to do too. Thanks a bunch, can't wait for your python version with more features!

    Re: SCRIPT: GrubED - GUI Grub editing

    When i use the "gksudo GrubEd" command, it asks me for my password. I enter it, something seems to be loading and then... nothing

    I decided to enter it again and it didn't ask for a password, the terminal said: "sudo: GrubEd: command not found"

    please help

    It's 'GrubEd', so the command you type, or use in a launcher is:
    Code:
    gksudo GrubEd

    Tomasaur- you are DA MAN!!

    I just installed Ubuntu tonight- first Linux try, and I'm diggin it big time. The grub bothered me- my system is a core 2 with XP Pro on it for the wife and kids, and I dual OS'd it today, and wanted to change the grub so it's easier on them (until they transition over, lol)

    Many thanks to you- **NOTE to ALL** if you read and read and read, the instructions are spot on- start at the last page and work back a few.

    Linux ultra n00b --- for now

    Just one question.

    Why no to make this project part of ubuntu?
    or at least on the repositories, or making a .deb and posting it here.

    Hi Tomasour

    I'm having the same issues as Japc126 with my install of Dapper.

    Any chance of posting the instructions you PM'd Japc126?

    Thanks heaps

    Here's what I sent, nothing too advanced really:

    Quote Originally Posted by Tomosaur

    1) Open up a terminal and type (case-sensitive):
    Code:
    ls /usr/bin/GrubEd
    If it says file not found, then GrubEd was not installed. If this is the case, make sure you extracted the GrubEd zip file. If you did, there should be a GrubEd folder. Change directory into that folder (cd GrubEd) and type:
    Code:
    sudo ./install
    If this doesn't work, you may need to set permissions on the install script:
    Code:
    chmod 755 ./install
    and then run it (sudo ./install).

    The installation procedure should let you know if GrubEd installs successfully.

    2)If GrubEd is installed, but your machine still tells you that it can't be found, then this suggests that your PATH isn't set up right. To fix this, type this in the terminal:
    Code:
    export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin
    Then try running GrubEd again. If this fixed your problem, you'll need to add the above line to your .bashrc file, which is in your home directory. The dot in front of it means it is hidden, so to open the file you have to type:
    Code:
    sudo nano ~/.bashrc
    and paste the export command into it at the bottom.

    One of the above should solve your problem. If neither do, then you may have something more seriously wrong happening.
    Try that, then if it still doesn't work, just post back here
