Grub2 Theme Alienware
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work):
Description:
First and foremost, a special thanks to jbaseb for the original theme, found here:
http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Grub2+Theme+Tuxkiller+V2?content=169520
Ive also made some edits to this file to help in the installation process,
X is representing the file folder containing 40_custom, grub and the theme folder
the first screen is a live boot i used my phone to take, the second is in virtualbox which is why it looks squished together.
if the themes folder isnt there try installing this first
sudo apt-get install grub2-splashimages
logout and back in, if the folder still isnt there run this command
sudo mkdir /boot/grub/themes
Unzip and copy the alienware folder in /boot/grub/themes.
open theme.txt and look for CHANGE ME theme.txt it is under Titre (supposed to be Title?)
change to anything you want
title-text=
change to
title-text=anything if you like
will display any text you choose in the top center of the theme
sudo cp -R X/alienware /boot/grub/themes/alienware
In the file in the /etc/default/grub changes are highlighted with a comment
# Custom theme settings
you should change the resolution to match your preference or maximum resolution
before copying.
cd /etc/default
sudo cp grub grub.old.bak
cd back to alienware.zip folder
sudo cp X/grub /etc/default/grub
Optional:
to add the lines Reboot System and Shutdown System copy the file 40_custom in etc/grub.d/ or change it manually.
cd /etc/grub.d
sudo cp 40_custom 40_custom.old.bak
cd back to alienware.zip folder
sudo cp X/40_custom /etc/grub.d/40_custom
Then type in a terminal sudo update-grub.
as per the original creator, change this as you wish. Last changelog:
