Fedora16 adds and modifies the background image and font color for grub2

I think my grub2 boot interface is too dark, so I searched the internet for a solution. Since grub2 is relatively new, it seems that the grub2 background has not been changed on fedora16, and only one similar article has been found.
 
 
Add a background image to Grub2
 
Step 1
Add the following at the end of/etc/default/grub:
GRUB_BACKGROUND =/usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-grub.png
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT = gfxterm
GRUB_THEME =/boot/grub2/mytheme/theme.txt
 
Step 2
 
Create/usr/share/grub directory and Change permissions
 
Mkdir/usr/share/grub
Chmod 0777/usr/share/grub
Step 3
Download the uploaded gfxterm font file:
 
Http://download.csdn.net/detail/gaoxin1076/4033667 (tar.bz2 format)
Http://download.csdn.net/detail/gaoxin1076/4033663 (rar format)
Decompress the file and put all the files in the/usr/share/grub directory.
 
Step 4
 
If you download the file in rar format, rename 05_debian_theme and 06_ubuntu_theme in the file to 05_redhat_theme and 06_fedora_theme.
 
If it is tar.bz2, you don't need this step. I should have done it.
 
If you want to open the file 06_fedora_theme
 
 
Echo "Found Debian background: 'basename $ {bg} '"> & 2
 
Change
 
Echo "Found Fedora background: 'basename $ {bg} '"> & 2
Of course, you can leave it alone if you are lazy.
 
Step 5
 
Create a/usr/share/images/desktop-base/directory:
 
 
Mkdir/usr/share/images/
Mkdir/usr/share/images/desktop-base
If yes, you do not need to create it. Pay attention to permission issues.
 
Then find a favorite image and rename it to: desktop-grub.png put in
 
 
Step 6
Run commands
 
 
Grub2-mkconfig
 
Grub2-mkconfig-o/boot/grub2/grub. cfg
 
To refresh the configuration file;
After restarting the computer, you can see that grub's background is your favorite background image.
 
 
The following are some additional considerations:
Add a background image to Grub2
Modify/etc/grub. d/05_redhat_theme, find this line: if set_background_image "/usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-grub.png" then, replace the quotation marks with the path of the directory of the image you want to change.
In this way, Grub will:
Find the file with the suffix png under the path of the directory of the image you want to change.
NOTE: If your image is in jpg format, you only need to add a jpg image after the suffix.
Grub2-mkconfig
Grub2-mkconfig-o/boot/grub2/grub. cfg
In this way, you can see it after the restart.
If you want to modify the image resolution, the ratio is 1334x768, then modify/etc/default/grub:
GRUB_GFXMODE = 1334x768 remove the # number in front of it. If it is not removed, it is the default value.
 
I tried it for n times and found that only images in png format can be converted. The reason is unknown.
Change font color:
Modify 05_redhat_theme and 06_fedora_theme to modify the following two rows.
Color_normal = green/black
Color_highlight = white/black
Note:
Set color_normal = green/black green indicates the font color/black indicates the background color
Set color_highlight = white/black white is the selected color/black is the background color
Here, the background color must be black (black is translated as black, and black is actually transparent),/the Front color can be changed to your favorite color.
Then grub2-mkconfig
Grub2-mkconfig-o/boot/grub2/grub. cfg
Sudo reboot
After restarting the computer, you can see the effect.
