@Tapsu Thanks for the feedback. About the Graphical OS Selector, I got it from Launchpad. And I already fixed the typos. I will continue to update this post.

Ubuntu 9.10 is not LTS, version 10.04 will be.

GRUB2 supports bigger resolutions and truecolor background images. If you modify the grub.cfg directly, your changes will be overridden when the grub-mkconfig script is called, e.g. during kernel update. Just use the customization scripts provided, /etc/default/grub and /etc/grub.d/*

What is that Graphical OS Selector in that concept pic and where did you get it? After GRUB(2) the OS is selected and splash screens have appeared, the system is booted, no use selecting the OS after that. Karmic has a second boot splash called xsplash, which is fired up after usplash and when xserver is ready. It gives the user something to look at while the rest of the system starts (no black or blank screen).

PS, you are calling Karmic Carmic a few times…

Excuse me? Karmic is no LTS release. 10.04 will be a LTS.
