That is kind of awesome.
I wish Debian’s default Grub theme was less ugly; I know I could change it (and I have on other installs, but I’m quite lazy about theming these days. Part of it is I have a laptop that I rely on for college and don’t want to risk any theme glitches, so I keep its Debian install as vanilla as possible.
The first time I tried doing it (alone, without watching the video), I broke the system ;(, had a boot problem, so I had to reinstall everything again.
I’m sure you could have fixed it with GRUB Rescue. It’s slightly annoying, but it isn’t that hard to get booted from that. Once you get it to boot then you can fix things.
Don’t give up so quickly next time. It’s useful to learn how to fix it instead of just accepting failure and resetting everything.
Yeah, man, I even went into live mode to try to undo what I did, but I still couldn’t manage it (I should have looked for help). But since I have backups of everything and my dotfiles, I didn’t worry too much (though I was pissed, I won’t lie).
Fun fact: you didn’t have to reinstall; you can actually boot up a live usb and chroot into your install to fix things.
That’s what I tried! But I couldn’t do it! I should have asked for help.
