Burg

Here's how to install BURG

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Insert these lines to /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu lucid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/bean123ch/burg/ubuntu lucid main


You should replace lucid with the correct code name. Currently the following release are supported: jaunty (9.04), karmic (9.10), lucid (10.04), maverick (10.10).

And install burg and related themes using these commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install burg


If you want to avoid the warning about unknown signature, use these commands to import it:

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 55708F1EE06803C5
gpg --export --armor 55708F1EE06803C5 | sudo apt-key add -


Then, install burg to MBR with the following command:

sudo burg-install /dev/sda
sudo update-burg



Even this works, and is highly recommended

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bean123ch/burg
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install burg
sudo update-burg
