I am not certain, but I think that’s gfxmenu. I once did that under Kubuntu using gfxboot.

Nice hack, I have been putting my own images and strings for GRUB, makes your machine more personal

That’s Great !

It is probably better to change the color in the /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme file in the block starting with the comment # set the background if possible

What would be interesting is to show how you can customize the entire menu instead of just changing the background. I was thinking of what openSuSE does for example.

I used the Ubuntu xsplash image at my native resolution (1440×900) and it looks very pretty. Thanks.

Well in that case, it wont get replaced and remain intact, right?

But agreed, and added! Thanks for pointing it out.

I think you forgot a ” ; do” at the end of those both for-lines.
