The Minecraft Grub Theme Trio:

Minecraft Main Menu > Minecraft World Selection Menu < Using both themes together

Minecraft World Selection Grub Theme

Wowie, another Minecraft grub theme! But this time it's in the style of the singleplayer world selection menu, which makes a little more sense than selecting your operating system from the main menu. There are also icons now! Isn't that great? And even better, they also include the descriptive text below each boot option!

Installation

  • Clone this repository
    git clone https://github.com/Lxtharia/minegrub-world-sel-theme.git
    
  • [Optional]: download the background matching your screen size from here
    • And copy it to minegrub-world-selection/background.png
  • Copy the folder to your boot partition
    cd ./minegrub-world-sel-theme
    sudo cp -ruv ./minegrub-world-selection /boot/grub/themes/
    
  • Change/add this line in your /etc/default/grub:
    GRUB_THEME=/boot/grub/themes/minegrub-world-selection/theme.txt
    
  • Update your live grub config by running
    sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
    

Icons

GRUB can add icons to each entry, based on the --class properties of a menuentry. This theme makes use of this to have each entry have its own icon and world description! Example:

# grub will try to use /boot/grub/themes/minegrub-world-selection/icons/arch.png as the icon and falls back on  gnu-linux.png,  gnu.png  and  os.png
menuentry 'Arch Linux' --class arch --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-somefunnyuuid' {
  ...
}

Setting icons for entries like Uefi Settings

If you want items like Uefi Settings to have an icon, you need to add --class uefi manually to the menuentry line in /boot/grub/grub.cfg:

menuentry "Uefi Settings" --class uefi ...

In this case you can put it in /etc/grub.d/30_uefi-firmware so it doesn't get overwritten when you regenerate your grub.cfg :>

Great

  • I like writing Readme but at the same time, it takes too long and it's never perfect
  • Everything feels like chaos
  • I spent too much time on this
  • Tell your grandparents and pets about this cool theme!
  • Put it on your laptop, put it on your smartwatch put it on your schools PCs (i won't take responsibility if you get expelled)
  • Install it on your mouse-with-screen, copy it to your flash drives
  • Btw, have I mentioned that I use arch?
  • I have a grand secret project that I may reveal soon
  • Maybe it eats your food, maybe it doesn't
  • Thank you internet for wisdom and funny youtube clips that kept me motivated on my journey
