How can I Install splashimage at GRUB2? (SOLVED)

[piper]

The way I do it, without losing my customizations (my fonts/colors, choice of distro (what you want to call/name that distro, or .png/grub background wallpaper) when a new kernel is installed or doing a update-grub is thru /etc/grub.d/40_custom

I also disable os-prober unless I install a new distro, etc, very easy to re-enable it

My 40_custom looks like this, very simple and clean

#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
