Duel boot with Bodhi & BionicPup,

grub shows Ubuntu 18.04 & BionicPup

would like to have Bodhi show as Bodhi (not ubuntu 18.04)

is there a persistant way to achive this?

Edit /etc/default/grub, set GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR to whatever you want.

This works only if Bodhi is the "primary" system (the one which
installed the active GRUB). Else os-prober does not care about names in
foreign GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR or grub.cfg and uses only information found in
foreign /etc/lsb-release, /etc/os-release or other distribution-specific
files.


If Bodhi is not the "originating grub", change Bodhi's /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION name, go to BionicPub and redo os-prober and
update-grub.

Alternatively, create a new entry in custom.cfg in the "originating
grub", disable os-prober.
