Hi,

after having used SUSE for many years I've just installed Ubuntu 8.04 and so far I like it...

There is one thing however I really miss from SUSE: A nicer GRUB-prompt.
The SUSE grub could display a graphical menu and was A LOT nicer than the purely text-based that Ubuntu is using.

So do I have to install my own GRUB or is there a way to tweak the Ubuntu one?

Many thanks!
