Splash menu....?
This is the menu which comes first when u stat your system ,and this allows you to select the os. Now you can change the back ground of this screen to a picture or anything you want..
For that u need to install grub2splash images..
Now open the terminal and type
sudo apt-get install grub2-splashimages
GRUB spalsh images are stored in the /usr/share/images/grub folder, you can access it with this command:
sudo nautilus /usr/share/images/grub
Yup can have any image of your own for one condition that it should be TGA format
edit now the /etc/default/grub file with this command:
sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
At the end of the file, add this line:
GRUB_BACKGROUND=/usr/share/images/grub/YOUR-IMAGE.tga
Replace YOUR-IMAGE.tga with your custom image name.
When you finish, press CTRL+Q and save your file. Run now this command:
sudo update-grub
Restart now your computer to see if changes are successful ...
