Sure, it is always a good advice to make a backup before you make changes 
to config files. However, the problem of the OP is not handling of config 
files but the config file syntax.

@Svobi: I think it isn't possible to make a part of the OS list invisible. 
And what would be the advantage of not showing some part of the OS list? 
Maybe you should have a look at the password and security sections in the 
grub manual:
