Well, after I finally installed LL on my machine, I noticed 2 things... There's no blue Kubuntu loading screen and the console boot shows me there was a fatal error found in...
modprobe: Fatal: /lib/modules/<number representing the kernel version>-generic/modules.dep: file or directory not found
I don't know if it has something to do with the lack of splash screen or not.
There another discovery I made...
My OS has no such file there. How can I create one? Or is this file specifically design to work with Grub 2? I still have the old one not version 2.

It's not corrupt; it's just a very low resolution with a very low colour depth. You could try this:
1) Using sudo/kdesudo, edit the file /etc/default/grub:
If necessary, comment out the line GRUB_TERMINAL=console by prepending a # character.
If necessary, un-comment the GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480 line.
Change it to some appropriate resolution, for example: GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768
2) Using sudo/kdesudo, edit the file /etc/grub.d/00_header:
In line 103, before insmod gfxterm, insert/edit:
set gfxmode=${GRUB_GFXMODE}
set gfxpayload=keep
3) Run sudo update-grub.
4) Don't blame me if it goes wrong.
You could give it a try before making any changes: when booting your machine, press e on your chosen GRUB menu entry and insert gfxpayload=1024x768 (as line 3, I was told somewhere around here; and of course using whatever resolution you desire and your hardware supports).
