Bug Description
Binary package hint: grub2
There is no easy way to change splash-screens while booting up in grub2.
To change default splash-screen a user needs to do the following :-
a. Know where the splash screen images reside
b. Know the file where the information for splash screen images is
c. Change the information therein.
Hence had to find the file where splash images are
a. The files are at /usr/share/
b. Now edit the file /etc/grub.
specifically line 16
from
for i in
{/boot/
; do
to
for i in
{/boot/
; do
Then do an update-grub
For normal users they should not be expected to know or do invasive
changes like this.

I was wondering if this would be a good additional tab for the Startup Manager: "edit images for splash screen"
