Grub Theme Changer

A simple script that picks a random theme from the /boot/grub/themes directory for GRUB to use at boot.

All credit goes to elbachir-one for creating the original script and teaching me how to use and apply it! Also, thanks to everyone in the Arch Community Discord for helping me learn and fix issues with Arch Linux.

Installation

1. Clone the repository and copy the script:

2. Make the script executable:

sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/random-grub-theme

3. Copy the systemd service file:

Verification

After reboot, check the service status with:

systemctl status random-grub-theme.service

You should see that a random theme has been selected from the /boot/grub/themes folder. You can add as many themes as you like — no need to reinstall or modify the script.
