--------------------------------------------------------------------
Install a New Theme
--------------------------------------------------------------------
   01. Find and download a theme  https://www.gnome-look.org/browse?cat=109&page=1&ord=latest
   02. Run the following commands in a terminal window:
         # change to ~/Downloads directory
         cd ~/Downloads
         # list the contents of the directory
         ls
         # extract the downloaded theme, replace the file name as needed
         tar xzvf 'Grub2-theme CyberRe 1.0.0.tar.gz'
         # copy the extracted theme to /boot/grub/themes
         # change the theme name as needed
         sudo cp CyberRe\ 1.0.0/CyberRe /boot/grub/themes/ -r
         # backup /etc/default/grub
         sudo cp /etc/default/grub /etc/default/grub.bkup
         # edit /etc/default/grub
         sudo nano /etc/default/grub
   03. At the bottom of the file, paste the following, updating the path to the theme.txt file
         GRUB_THEME=/boot/grub/themes/CyberRe/theme.txt
   04. Press CTRL+O, Enter, CTRL+X to write the changes
   05. Continue with the following commands in a terminal window:
         # update grub
         sudo update-grub
   06. If everything is setup correctly, a line that reads Found theme: /boot/grub/themes/CyberRe/theme.txt should show in the update-grub output
   07. Reboot to see the new theme in action
 
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Removing the Theme
--------------------------------------------------------------------
   01. Run the following commands in a terminal window:
         # change to the grub themes directory
         cd /boot/grub/themes/
         # list the contents of the directory
         ls
         # recursively remove the custom theme directory
         # replace the theme folder name as needed
         sudo rm CyberRe -r
   02. NOTE: You can also remove the GRUB_THEME= line from /etc/default/grub, but it is not required
   03. Continue with the following commands:
         # update grub
         sudo update-grub
         # reboot
         sudo reboot now
