			GrubHack  by Bruce Steers

This is a simple app i made because i like to experiment with
operating systems and am often effecting my grub2 menu and wishing
to edit it easily, or change the default boot disk etc.

It reads the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file and lists all the menu entries

it allows you to re-order the items
delete entries
edit menu text
change menu timeout
set default menu entry

it also has buttons for...
running update-grub to do an OS probe and rebuild a new grub.cfg file
running grub-install to install the grub2 bootloader to a chosen disk
running "fdisk -l" to list all disk drives (i plan to make this an 
internal function)

Installation:
to install double click the .deb file to run your packager

Usage:
This program was written using Gambas basic so YOU MUST HAVE THE 
Gambas2 runtime installed. use your package manager / software 
installer to search / get the Gambas2 runtime.


TO SAVE CHANGES YOU MUST RUN THIS PROGRAM AS ROOT

gnome users use  "gksu gbr2 /path/to/program/GrubHack.gambas"
gksu = the command to get SuperUser access
gbr2 = the gambas2 runtime command
/path/to/program/GrubHack.gambas = the full path to the app

the about page shows the text you need to run the app as root
just create a menu entry or desktop icon and copy this text for the command
