Wouter Ruelens asks:
I have installed Linux Mint 14 ‘Nadia’ on my laptop with UEFI via Grub2. It is however difficult to change the boot options in Grub2 so I would like to replace it with BURG. Is this possible?

December 15, 2012If i were you I’d prefer Grub 2 over Burg anyway I,m not sure if it’s a good decision you can try sudo burg-install /dev/sda
I’ve been used it in Linux mint maya not sure if it will work in Mint 14
Hope it will work for you
Best Regards,
Why do you prefer Grub2, how dou you configure it than?
December 16, 2012Because Grub 2 has more support than burg, In my opinion Grub 2 is more customizable than burg,
Assuming you have only one OS installed on your Laptop the process is simple
Open Terminal and run following commands :-
(1)sudo add-apt-repository ppa:n-muench/burg sudo apt-get update
(2)sudo apt-get install burg burg-themes
(3)sudo burg-install “(hd0)”
(4)sudo update-burg
(5)sudo burg-emu
If it doesn’t work for you, kindly feed back with the error in case you get any
December 17, 2012I think I’m going to stay with Grub2 as I already messed up my boot config once (using easyBCD however).
