There is a program called grub customizer which can help you do this.

Advanced options for Ubuntu Windows-7 Memory test (memtest86+)

(on /dev/sdc2)
I'm dual booting Xubuntu and Windows-7. Only the last entry is
valid - booting from /dev/sdc2. I wish to get rid of all of the
other entries for Windows. But how?
I've read and re-read many tutorials / documents on using Grub2 and
fail to grasp how to achieve what I wish to do. Bamboozled I am.
Parenthetically, I believe the some of the erroneous entries arise
because there are several NTFS partitions on various hard drives as
well as an SSD (sdc), although that does not explain the
"Windows-7" entry - that choice yields a no-such partition error
when selected.

After reviewing grub customizer, I've decided to not use it . . .
looks like a bit of a kludge and I'm worried that I could end-up
with more problems than it's worth.<br>
<br>
Thanks for the suggestion.<br>

More on this in reply to others.<br>
