    <para>You can add an entry or modify the one you select first, by pressing the
relevant button in the <emphasis>Bootloader Configuration</emphasis> screen
and editing the screen that pops up on top of it.</para>

    <note>
      <para>If you have chosen <code>Grub 2</code> as your bootloader, you cannot use
this tool to edit entries at this step, press 'Next'. You need to manually
edit <code>/boot/grub2/custom.cfg</code> or use <code>grub-customizer</code>
instead.</para>

    <para>Some things that can be done without any risk, are changing the label of an
entry and ticking the box to make an entry the default one.</para>

    <para>You can add the proper version number of an entry, or rename it completely.</para>

    <para>The default entry is the one the systems boots into if you don't make a
choice while booting up.</para>

    <warning>
      <para>Editing other things can leave you with an unbootable system.  Please don't
just try something without knowing what you are doing.</para>

  <section>
    <title>With an UEFI system</title>

    <para>In this case you are using Grub2-efi and you cannot use this tool to edit
entries at this step. To do that you need to manually edit
<code>/boot/grub2/custom.cfg</code> or use <code>grub-customizer</code>
instead. All you can do here, is to choose the default entry in the drop
down list.</para>

    <para>After a click on the <guibutton>Next</guibutton> button, another drop down
list allows to choose the video resolution for Grub2 which is a graphical
boot loader.</para>
