I would like to see the Grub Menu and Login Screen integrated. So at start up you would have the Logo for Ubuntu and any other OS to login to.

Yeah I think this bootloader is just crap to get this site some extra views -.- ( No Ubuntu Logo )

I prefer the old boot menu. This looks tacky to me.

Change text Ubuntu to Ubuntu 10.10. I have and use Ubuntu, but not Ubuntu 10.10

Maybe it’s a joke to prompt trolls out of hiding?

Awful, just stick with the classic, those were a lot nicer. This looks like a really bootleg windows wannabe design.

Needs a ‘grub repair option’ and a ‘terminal’, it takes a while to boot into live OS and I don’t have to keep special recovery CDs in case I disturb my grub.

You really need to have “verify media” there are so many that download and burn the media with corrupt .iso and then spend hours mucking around with a bad burnt media.

Will there still be a menu to choose the language and keyboard configuration? Or will you have to go through “more options…”? I know if I had to try ubuntu for the first time I wouldn’t have changed the keyboard to azerty (belgian) if I didn’t saw the option without clicking something and thus I woudld have had more problems. And thats not wat we want with new Ubuntu users.

I guess I can’t do any fancy posting, that should have been:

ICON Try ___ ICON Install___ICON Test
….description __…description____…description

agree w/ @Ade.
looks awful and boring - what’s w/ the background and the warped icon. How about some themed icons next to the text:

Try Install Test
….description …description …description

also, not my fav. font

btw…where’s the Ubuntu logo here????

Way to crappy. This has to be a joke. Look at the power switch in the bottom corner. Looks like a resized piece of free clip-art.

Dreadful.

Canonical should employ some real artist and marketing people. It is simple but not on a nice way. Probably functional, but boring. 5 minutes in GIMP and almost everybody could be more creative about the atrwork. The CONCEPT is good! The blue also fits better to the Kubuntu than Ubuntu itself. I think that background pick should be more Lucid-like.

Great idea!!! Like it simple, i am not into that blue color though. Try and Install i agree is a better option and try and install must be in a different font color, like yellow for this blue one.

I immediately thought the same thing as Yuval-- put the memtest in the “More Options…” menu. Anybody who’s actually going to use it won’t mind going through one menu to find it.

Put test memory in other options

By: Yuval

Yuval — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 20:08:51 +0000

Why do you need to test memory? come on. Just do: Install or Try
