In my personal opinion editing the grub.cfg is more secure compared to other alternatives.
Just backup the orginal file & make sure you know some way to restore it, if something goes wrong. I'm not a geek, but i can tell that this is much safer for non geeks. Because I've edited the grub.cfg without much confusion. @Vipin you may use startup-manager if you are scared, but it may not fulfill all your requirements On 12/6/09, Mahesh Mohan <[email protected]> wrote: > On Sun, Dec 6, 2009 at 5:32 PM, Vipin <[email protected]> wrote: > >> hi, >> where is the menu.list in karmic. >> > > From Ubuntu 9.10, a new version of Grub is installed by default, written > from scratch.
