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

<p>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.
</p>
<p>You can add the proper version number of an entry, or rename it
completely.
</p>
<p>The default entry is the one the systems boots into if you don't make
a choice while booting up.
