# Installation
|
|

#### Edit or use pre-made theme

|
|

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Copy theme

Theme must be unpacked (in folder)
|
|
|
|

|
|
sudo cp -r <theme_name>/ /boot/grub/themes
|
|

#### Edit Grub config
|
|
|
|
You can use your favourite text editor
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Uncomment this line and set your resolution:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
At the end of file add theme path:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GRUB_THEME="/boot/grub/themes/<theme_name>/theme.txt"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Note:
|
|
- **Replace "<theme_name>" with selected theme's name.**
|
|
|
|
- **To check what name your distro has given the GRUB folder, run:**
|
|
```
|
|
ls /boot | grep -i -w 'grub\|grub2'
|
|
```
|
|
Ctrl+O to save, Ctrl+X to exit
|
|
|
|
#### Update Grub config
|
|
|
|
You will need to tell Grub to update its configuration to include the new theme.
|
|
|
|
##### Ubuntu and Debian-based systems:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo update-grub
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### Fedora, Arch & Other Linux distros:
|
|
|
|
To find out whether you have a BIOS or UEFI system, run the following command in a terminal:
|
|
```
|
|
inxi -M | grep -i 'UEFI\|BIOS'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you have a BIOS system, run:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you have a UEFI system, run:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo grub2-mkconfig /etc/grub2-efi.cfg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Install theme in Ventoy
|
|
|
|
Extract `Ventoy.tar` to `/ventoy/theme` directory
|
|
|
|
Locate `ventoy.json` file in `/plugin/ventoy/` directory and change:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
"file": "/ventoy/theme/blur/theme.txt",
