[xubuntu-users] Please help

[Donny Turang]

Thankyou for the response.
On the Acer Aspire 4750 Laptop, the BIOS has enabled AHCI mode. (UEFI
mode and secure boot are not in the BIOS menu).
The problem I faced when installing Xubuntu was that the BIOS boot
menu said Ubuntu. Whatever Operating System (OS) is installed, the
Ubuntu text in the BIOS boot menu does not disappear. That's very
annoying.
Hi, is there a way to remove Ubuntu from the BIOS boot menu?
Thank you
