[Bug 1080865] Re: Debian instead of Ubuntu grub splash

[Hadmut Danisch]

Maybe that's a leftover of a previous linux?

I just bought this brandnew Acer notebook, took it out of the box, and
directly installed ubuntu. However, I have bought the version „without
operating system” to not waste around 60 Euro for a Windows 7 I do not
use.  But even an Acer Notebook „without operating system” comes with
some rudimentary simple Linux, which I did not care at all about. I
removed all existing partitions when installing Ubuntu.

But I am not sure where this grub splash screen is stored. Is it by any
means possible that this was a leftover from this factory-installed
Linux, which might be some derivative of debian and thus come with a
debian splash screen?

  Hi,

  I've just installed a new PC with the 64 bit version of the 12.04.01

  You know what? When going into the grub menu before booting, it shows
  the debian instead of the ubuntu splash screen.
