In this tutorial we will see how to upgrade/install GRUB 2.00 from PPA on a system running Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) and Linux Mint 13. Installing from PPA will be easier than installing manually from source because you may get unresolved errors.
This latest version brings more improvements, bug fixes and corrections. You can check the full changelog of GRUB 2.00 here.
GRUB 2.00 Installation
Open the terminal and run these commands:

Update now the GRUB2 boot loader with this command:
sudo update-grub2
You can now verify your current grub2 version with this command:
grub-install -v
Outputs returned for Ubuntu 12.04:
