    Kubuntu 10.10 grub version?

    Hi i would like to know what version does come with kubuntu 10.10 if its version 2 great! cause i already found it's how to...and if its the earlier one good cuase i already know how it works...but i doubt is the earlier one since i already tried editing menu.lst and there is no menu.lst XD I just want to find out what type of grub is cause i want to edit the boot since im dual booting with windows 7. Thanks

      I would suggest you read a bit about grub-pc (also known as grub 2) so that you're more familiar with the differences with grub-legacy (also known as grub).

      For instance: the file menu.lst no longer exists, it has been replaced in part by /boot/grub/grub.cfg. However, it is not intended to edit this file. Rather, edit; /etc/default/grub and files stored in /etc/grub.d/.

            Grub 2, aka "grub-pc" is currently at version 1.98x. Legacy grub ended at 1.97x.

              1.98 is grub2 ............and you can tweak it........but the tweaking is done different.

                Not to be a nudge dibl, but to avoid confusion - grub-legacy versions ended with 0.97.

                I wish the folks over at grub dev. would have adopted a more common naming scheme instead of this multi-named version centric thingy...

                  I'm starting to think that once your treading the upper halls of geekdom the mind starts seeing every thing as sequential string's of numerals ..................... LOL

                    Well, you're right, of course. Color me ex-confused (on that point, anyway).
