Grub entries in Ubuntu 9.10 can be found in the following file
Code:
/boot/grub/grub.cfg
compared to the following file used in previous versions:
Code:
/boot/grub/menu.lst
grub.cfg contains the Grub menu instructions. Unlike menu.lst, grub.cfg is NOT MEANT TO BE EDITED!!! grub.cfg is automatically generated or updated whenever "update-grub" is executed. The command must be run as root.
Code:
grub (/etc/default/grub)
This file contains information previously found in the upper section of /boot/grub/menu.lst. It contains settings primarily affecting Grub's menu display. This file can be edited by root to make changes to these settings; they will be imported into grub.cfg when "update-grub" is executed.
Code:
/etc/grub.d/ (folder)
The files in this folder are read during execution of '"update-grub"'command. The scripts in these files export the information they gather into /boot/grub/grub.cfg
