Securing GRUB2 with password

2012-05-03T09:36:00.000-07:00

GRUB2 is the next generation of the GRand Unified Bootloader (GRUB). GRUB2 is derived fromPUPA which was a research project to investigate the next generation of GRUB. GRUB2 has been rewritten from scratch to clean up everything and provide modularity and portability

GRUB2 uses a newer method, so I'll outline the brief how to protect you GRUB with password

First you'll need to type the command:

grub-mkpasswd-pbkdf2

Now type your chosen password...

open up the terminal and type su to login as root then type

vi /etc/grub.d/00_header

Now take your new password which will look something like this

grub.pbkdf2.sha512.10000.5F60AA485BA2B7EA640974BCDF5722F7600FDAF99AFE6AD8ECA33A1A05E53AB85B8B426E22AC246CC50558807BBA24752CBD61FD04155E26C41307F4AD64C9F7.0BDA015BBD97F09776CB66C90E0D82C2855C297039A1638D28A77FE2DDA3C8B8105C82FB2766FAEF4400647917A82CF3FB4B8E9B43ACBA6439F1E3C9B1A90194
And use the following example of how to paste it in at the end of the 00_header file under the last line of code so it will look like this:

cat << EOF
set superusers="putyourusernamehere"
password yourusername yourpassword
EOF

Now update your GRUB with the following command

update-grub

NOW YOUR NEW PASSWORD POLICY WILL BE ENFORCED

NOTE:
please use your own user name and passwords,do not putyourusernamehere and the yourpassword provided above as this is only an example.

What is VMware Player ?

VMware Player is the easiest way to run multiple operating systems at the same time on your PC. With its user-friendly interface, VMware Player makes it effortless for anyone to try out Windows 8 developer release, Windows 7, Chrome OS or the latest Linux releases, or create isolated virtual machines to safely test new software and surf the Web. VMware Player can also be used to run a virtual copy of an old PC so that you can recycle the old machines you have under your desk or stored in the closet.
