    That is kind of awesome.

    I wish Debian’s default Grub theme was less ugly; I know I could change it (and I have on other installs, but I’m quite lazy about theming these days. Part of it is I have a laptop that I rely on for college and don’t want to risk any theme glitches, so I keep its Debian install as vanilla as possible.

      The first time I tried doing it (alone, without watching the video), I broke the system ;(, had a boot problem, so I had to reinstall everything again.

        Fun fact: you didn’t have to reinstall; you can actually boot up a live usb and chroot into your install to fix things.

          That’s what I tried! But I couldn’t do it! I should have asked for help.
