[GUIDE]: how to change the boot order with Grub customizer


linux-pengiun

Most of you know how important it is to modify the boot order GRUB as desired so that one can set a particular operating system to be the default operating system if there is more than one operating system installed on the computer (Windows and Linux for example) or those who have more than one distribution of Linux distributions.

To make it easier for you, so you do not have to deal with configuration files (such as /etc/default/grub), There is the Grub Customizer, a simple graphical user interface (gtk), which will allow you to configure the latest version of the GNU boot loader (GRUB 2).

Including Debian and Fedora Grub Customizer can be installed from multiple repositories of GNU/Linux distributions. In Ubuntu, from 19.04 we can find a Grub Customizer in the repositories, and in the case of older versions, a third-party PPA can be used.

Briefly :
Debian sid, buster or stretch:
sudo apt install grub-customizer
Fedora:
sudo dnf install grub-customizer
Ubuntu 19.04:
sudo apt install grub-customizer
Ubuntu 18.10, 18.04, 16.04 and 14.04/Linux Mint 19, 18 and 17:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizersudo apt updatesudo apt install grub-customizer
For other distributions you can search for Grub Customizer in your package manager or read the instructions to compile the source code.
