| Robo2020 | Hey, I'm having an issue where I can't edit GRUB's configuration. | 17:23 |
| diogenes_ | Robo2020, what you trying to do | 17:24 |
| Robo2020 | I want to set it up, so that GRUB doesn't appear. I have only Xubuntu 18.04 installed. There are 3 entries whenever I boot. | 17:24 |
| Robo2020 | I forgot the names of the entries, though. | 17:25 |
| Robo2020 | I tried changing the timeout to 1 second, and it didn't make any difference. | 17:25 |
| diogenes_ | Robo2020, cat /etc/default/grub | nc termbin.com 9999 | 17:26 |
| diogenes_ | share the link | 17:26 |
| Robo2020 | https://termbin.com/sj5f | 17:27 |
| diogenes_ | Robo2020, replace GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden with GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 | 17:29 |
| diogenes_ | and below GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 add GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true | 17:30 |
| diogenes_ | save, close and run: sudo update grub | 17:30 |
| Robo2020 | ok, updated, reboot now? | 17:33 |
| diogenes_ | cat /etc/default/grub | nc termbin.com 9999 | 17:33 |
| diogenes_ | <diogenes_> share the link | 17:33 |
| diogenes_ | share | 17:33 |
| Robo2020 | https://termbin.com/el55 | 17:34 |
| diogenes_ | looks good, reboot. | 17:35 |
| Robo2020 | Nope. I still get GRUB 2.02. The last entry is "System Setup" that takes me to a menu, where I can press F-keys to enter BIOS or choose boot devices. It's a HP laptop. | 17:39 |
| Robo2020 | I think that last entry is the problem. | 17:39 |
| Robo2020 | I looked in the BIOS and didn't find any interesting options. | 17:40 |
| diogenes_ | Robo2020, why you need to go to system setup? what is the first entry? | 17:41 |
| Robo2020 | First entry is: Ubuntu. | 17:42 |
| Robo2020 | Second: Ubuntu recovery. | 17:42 |
| Robo2020 | Third: System Setup | 17:42 |
| diogenes_ | Robo2020, sudo apt install grub-customizer | 17:43 |
| Robo2020 | did that just now | 17:43 |
| diogenes_ | in the menu open it and look through the options. | 17:44 |
| diogenes_ | there is something like hide the menu ... | 17:45 |
| diogenes_ | don't forget to save changes | 17:45 |
| Robo2020 | yeah, don't look for other operating systems? maybe that | 17:45 |
| diogenes_ | that too | 17:46 |
| diogenes_ | i forgot the options, it's been awhile since i last used it. | 17:47 |
| Robo2020 | yeah, that's okay, i'll try rebooting | 17:48 |
| Robo2020 | Nopes. What does "Install to MBR..." do? | 17:51 |
| diogenes_ | it installs the bootcode to mbr section of the hdd. | 17:52 |
| diogenes_ | don't do that if you don't know what you do. | 17:53 |
| Robo2020 | Okay. | 17:54 |
| Robo2020 | I'll remove the System Setup entry and reboot. | 17:54 |
| Robo2020 | I have no idea what's wrong with it. | 17:56 |
| Robo2020 | lol | 17:57 |
| Robo2020 | It's like the config file doesn't work. | 17:57 |
| Robo2020 | Has been like this ever since I installed linux. | 17:57 |
| Robo2020 | Only ever used Ubuntu, though. | 17:57 |
| nuevoxubuntuamd | hola | 20:02 |
| nuevoxubuntuamd | buenas tardes | 20:03 |
