GRUB theme inspired by Frieren: Beyond Journey's End — a mystical, minimalist feel with a runic touch.
sudo ./install.shThe script:
- copies the theme into
/boot/grub/themes/ - automatically updates the GRUB configuration
Warning
The install script automatically edits /etc/default/grub and runs grub-mkconfig.
Depending on your system configuration, this can break your boot entirely.
Known critical cases:
- LUKS encrypted systems: enabling
gfxterm(required for the theme) switches GRUB to a different keyboard driver. If your disk passphrase contains special characters (!,&,',~,@,#...), they may be interpreted in QWERTY instead of your actual layout — locking you out of your own system. - LVM on LUKS / custom initramfs setups: any change to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUXmay break the boot chain. - Multi-boot systems: automatic
grub-mkconfigmay overwrite or ignore custom entries.
✅ Recommended: review changes to /etc/default/grub manually, then run sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg yourself.
sudo ./uninstall.shThe script restores a clean GRUB configuration.
The theme includes several backgrounds:
- 1920×1080 (Full HD)
- 2560×1440 (QHD)
The script automatically picks the best option for your screen.
- Animated runic progress bar
- Custom icons (Linux, Windows, etc.)
- Backgrounds for multiple resolutions
- Understated, immersive style
- A few visual tweaks are still pending
- Some GRUB configurations may still need tweaking
A matching Plymouth theme (same visual universe, but a design adapted to the boot splash) is coming soon.
