Above the 'Load Operating System' menu entry you should also add a GRUB password, like so:

-
set superusers="root"
-	password_pbkdf2 root grub.pbkdf2.sha512.10000.711F186347156BC105CD83A2ED7AF1EB971AA2B1EB2640172F34B0DEFFC97E654AF48E5F0C3B7622502B76458DA494270CC0EA6504411D676E6752FD1651E749.8DD11178EB8D1F633308FD8FCC64D0B243F949B9B99CCEADE2ECA11657A757D22025986B0FA116F1D5191E0A22677674C994EDBFADE62240E9D161688266A711

Note that the above entry specifies user 'root'; this is just a username for GRUB.

Obviously, replace it with the correct hash that you actually got for the password that you entered. Meaning, not the hash that you see above! -- cgit v1.2.3-70-g09d2
