$ cd gfu

Menuentries

The grub/menuentries directory contains configuration files that are automatically read by grub.cfg. Therefore, there is no need to edit the main file. It is enough to place your boot configurations in grub/menuentries.

Themes

You can also upload the theme you want to the theme directory and set it as the default theme in themes/theme.cfg
