Thanks to Janina and the FC6 HOWTO-INSTALL for the inspiration for the following, although the details differ some: 1. Edit the file /etc/grub/grub.lst with an editor that allows you to use control characters as data. I use edbrowse, but ed will do nicely, or vi. 2. Look for lines containing the word "title" (lower case, no quotes) that are not commented out, i.e. have no hash mark in column 1. 3. Replace the first letter of the word that follows "title" with a control-g and that very letter. That is, place the control-g just ahead of the first letter of the word that follows "title". The word is "Debian". 4. Save your changes and exit. That's it. It works great. However, although I haven't checked this, you will probably loose the beep when you do an update-grub, and will then have to repeat this procedure. Theoretically you should do the above for every such line in the grub.lst file, but I doubt that you will be able to count the beeps, they will occur so rapidly. I only have one such line myself, so I have not checked that either. HTH Chuck -- The Moon is Waning Gibbous (97% of Full) Only 10 kinds of people: those who do binary, and those who do not.
