It is called "Grub boot loader's menu configuration file".
This is usually located at /boot/grub/menu.lst or
/boot/grub/grub.conf but may vary depending on the Linux
distribution.

1. RedHat - /boot/grub/grub.conf
----------------------------------------------
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

# section to load Linux
title Red Hat Enterprise Linux (2.4.21-1.ent)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.21-1 ro root=/dev/sda2
initrd /initrd-2.4.21-1.img

# section to load Windows
title Windows
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
=============================================

2. Ubuntu and Debian - /boot/grub/menu.lst
