If it's the "Advanced" menu option you're talking about I always add the bottom line to my /etc/default/grub file to remove the clutter.
Code: [Select]
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="LinuxLite64-2.4"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet nosplash"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
# Remove Advanced grub option
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=y

Is the second LL entry not the Safe Mode (or something like that) option?

The UEFI dual-boot on my laptop is working well.
However, I notice in the Device Boot List that LL is listed twice, even though only one LL operating system is installed (version 2.4), alongside win8.1.

Why is this & does it matter?
Should I delete one of them?

Thanks for any help with this

Regards
Mike

64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung netbook) installed in Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
