Instal Burg Sebagai Pengganti Grub Pada UBuntu

Berikut ini adalah cara-cara menginstal Burg pada ubuntu... untuk para pengguna LINUX khususnya ubuntu....

Burg is a brand new boot-loader based on GRUB. It is the first program that helps start your computer and displays OS options on the menu to start. It is nice but difficult to manage from the command-line. Burg-Manager lets you manage Burg boot-loader through an easy to use management console instead of the command-line.  In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to install and manage Burg with Burg-Manager.

Instalasi BURG dapat dilakukan seperti ini :

Here are the steps to install BURG using PPA package from launchpad.
1. Insert these lines to /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu lucid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu lucid main

You should replace lucid with the correct code name. Currently the following release are supported: jaunty (9.04), karmic (9.10), lucid (10.04), maverick (10.10).


And install burg and related themes using these commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install burg

If you want to avoid the warning about unknown signature, use these commands to import it:

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 55708F1EE06803C5
gpg --export --armor 55708F1EE06803C5 | sudo apt-key add -

Then, install burg to MBR with the following command:

sudo burg-install /dev/sda

sudo update-burg

Change hd0 if you want to install to other disk.


2. Edit configuration file /etc/default/burg
For the latest version, you don't need to modify /etc/default/burg at all. If you upgrade from previous version, it's recommended to change the setting of GRUB_THEME and GRUB_FOLD to:

GRUB_THEME=saved
GRUB_FOLD=saved

This allows you to change theme and folding options dynamically.
Here are the hot-keys defined in the boot menu:

• t - Open theme selection menu
• f - Toggle between folding mode
• n - Jump to the next item with the same class
• w - Jump to the next Windows item
• u - Jump to the next Ubuntu item
• e - Edit the command of current boot item
• c - Open a terminal window
• 2 - Open two terminal windows
• h - Display help dialog (only available in sora theme)
• i - Display about dialog (only available in sora theme)
• q - Return to old grub menu
• F5/ctrl-x - Finish edit
• F6 - Switch window in dual terminal mode
• F7 - List the folded boot items
• F8 - Toggle between graphic and text mode
• F9 - shutdown
• F10 - reboot
• ESC - quit from the current popup menu or dialog.

Since 20100309 version, burg also supports grub2 theme. To try it, set GRUB_THEME to the name of the theme file, and run update-burg. Currently only one grub2 theme is available in burg-themes package:

GRUB_THEME=/boot/burg/themes/debian-theme/theme.txt

 
3. Live preview themes in host OS
    To preview the current configuration, use this command:

sudo burg-emu

grub2 theme needs to access disk directly, to preview it, you need to add -D option:

sudo burg-emu -D

and then the BURG FInish and ready to you. TRY IT
BE Carefull :)
