Updating Grub 2 Config

Updating Grub 2 - 

If you want to change your grub configuration (reorder, change, remove etc) - there are TWO steps

1. Make The Change

2. Update Grub

 

For example, If you want to change the selected OS to boot from (usually the first one is selected by default).

rohit@lenovo:~$ sudo gedit /etc/default/grub 

rohit@lenovo:~$ sudo update-grub

Generating grub.cfg ...

The steps above, essentially means, I opened the grub file in a text editor, made changes and saved it. Then I ran update-grub to cement my changes. Done
