Thanks for the question.

The menu for grub is configured in "/boot/grub/menu.lst"

Hi forgive my ignorance. I am really new to Ubuntu. I put /boot/grub/menu.lst into terminal and got..

bash: /boot/grub/menu.lst: Permission denied

so I put "Sudo" in front of it (not even sure what "sudo" does and got...

sudo: /boot/grub/menu.lst: command not found

Well, you need to use an editor. You can use vi or nano:

sudo vi /boot/grub/menu.lst

or

sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst

Here are some more instructions for nano: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Nano?action=show&redirect=NanoHowto

I hope this helps.
