Tokyo-Night for GRUB
A dark theme for GRUB. Basically just minor tweaks of Dracula grub that I made to go along with my arch i3 rice.
This can adapt to various resolustions of screens, at least my 1080p screen worked just fine.
It should be compatible with all linux distros that uses grub
But I only used ubuntu, fedora and arch so far, so your mileage may vary.
Steps:
- clone this repo or download the .zip
git clone https://github.com/mino29/tokyo-night-grub.git- Change directory
cd tokyo-night-grub
- copy the whole tokyo-night directory grub themes
sudo cp -r tokyo-night /boot/grub/themes- edit grub file
sudo vim /etc/default/grub
change #GRUB_THEME= to
GRUB_THEME="/boot/grub/themes/tokyo-night/theme.txt"
- use magic and reboot
run this command
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
then reboot and voila
Oh oh, can't see grub menu or boot into arch linux?
Grub on Arch Linux can be a pain to deal with recently. After I change the theme and reboot and cannot boot into my Arch Linux, had to do a "chroot", but worry not, here's what you need:
- USB drive with arch iso
- 15 minutes of free time
- Stable internet connection
