    1. Worked excellently along with arch linux. However, when i went to shutdown or restart, Phoenix OS freezes.
      Any way to fix this issue ?

    2. I think way modifing grub.cfg is incorrect you must edit /etc/grub.d/40_custom because every time the user want regenerate grub config(for whatever reason) the file will be emptied so the modification will be removed while grub is creating configuration file

      While modification in /etc/grub.d/40_custom get append to the grub.cfg
      Cons of modify grub.cfg:
      Syntax or command not exist will not checked so when boot up it failed to parse it and 1. throw error and i don't know if this could cause your system unable to boot until you plug other operating system in or external grub bootloader to load the system

      Pros of modifying grub.cfg:
      1. You don't need to remake grub config through grub-mkconfig

      Pros of modifying through /etc/grub.d/40_custom:
      1. Syntax and command will be simulated so there no chance of error

      Cons of modifying through /etc/grub.d/40_custom:
      1. It slower than modifying grub.cfg directly
