What are these?

GNU GRUB (GNU GRand Unified Bootloader) themes.

GRUB is a bootloader commonly used in GNU/Linux operating systems. A bootloader is simply a program that finds and boots up your operating system. An operating system is a program that allows you to interact with your computer (For example: GNU/Linux, MacOS, Windows). A computer is... You know...

How this is started?

In 30 October 2021, around 4 AM, I've released my first GRUB theme, Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team GRUB Theme.

Later on, a few people around the Internet, especially from Reddit, asked about other teams. So I decided to write GRUB themes for all 10 teams of 2021 Formula One World Championship.

Disclaimer

This project is not affiliated with Formula 1 or any Formula 1 team in any way.

As a fan, I've wanted to create a GRUB theme for myself and then share it with the world for free (as in freedom).

Demo

2021 Formula One World Championship GRUB themes

Installation (For Ubuntu 20.04)

  1. git clone https://github.com/alisezisli/Formula1-GRUB-Themes (or download the project as a zip)
  2. cd Formula1-GRUB-Themes
  3. sudo cp -r {The Theme You Want} /boot/grub/themes/
  4. sudo vi /etc/default/grub
  5. Change the corresponding lines. If the lines don't exist, add them into file:
    • GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu
    • GRUB_THEME="/boot/grub/themes/{The Theme You Want}/theme.txt"
  6. sudo update-grub

Installation (For other distros)

It's pretty much the same. But you might have to use some something else instead of sudo update-grub, like sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg.

Notes

These are my first GRUB themes and I'm sure it needs a lot of improvement. I've tested this theme with Ubuntu 20.04 in 1920x1080 resolution. Feel free to create issues and PR's.
