40_custom file is ok!
Check the package has been extracted to /boot/grub/themes/,and you have update-grub to create new grub.cfg.
If not work,see this document for more details:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Burg/

follow the directions again.
somewhere youve only copied half of the path that is needed to find the theme configs.

most likely your 40_custom file is borked.

code:

sudo gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom

then replace
/sora/theme.cfg
with
/boot/grub/themes/sora/theme.cfg

save it and run
update-grub

then you should b ok

The installation steps have changed. It’s much simpler now, you don’t need to modify 40_custom.

Hi all, I am currently triple booting Windows 7, MAC OSX SL, and Ubuntu 10.04 on 3 partitions.

After much haggling, i think this is how my triple boot works

Installed OSX first, then WIndows 7
Boot into windows 7 installed EasyBCD
added entries for OSX
Can boot into OSX and Windows 7
Installed Ubuntu
Installed Grub on Ubuntu partition
added entry for Ubuntu in easyBCD

all works now
except I hate the bootloader black screen white text
then when I select Ubuntu, it goes to the grub bootloader another ugly screen which also lists all the boots.

I am hoping to have something a little more refined. something like this: http://ubuntuguide.net/add-os-logos-int … using-burg

Question is, how can I go about this without a complete reinstall of my 3 OS
