How to change grub2 OS options in 9.10
I want to remove the memtest entries from the list of OS boot options in Grub2 at startup. In 9.04 I did this by modifying File System / boot / grub / menu.lst. However this text file does not seem to exist in this location in 9.10.
How do I now modify my boot options in grub?
Thanks in advance

try this link..
https:/
it says that run "sudo chmod -x /etc/grub.
you may read all about grub2 on this page.
And grub2 doesn't have a menu.lst file.. the configuration file is /boot/grub/grub.cfg but it shouldn't be modified manually.. read more about it on that page..

Do these steps
1. sudo chmod +w /boot/grub/grub.cfg
2. sudo gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg
3. place # in front of the menuentry you don't want to see at boot up screen

I tried playing around with shredder12's suggestion, but being a newbie, didn't quite get there (I think its an abbreviation of an actual solution).
Aurevoir's step by step suggestion worked perfectly, thank you very much.
