Can someone provide explicit instruction on how to edit?

I see this comment below that was made previously but the problem I have is how to actually edit the file.

"I edited /usr/lib/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib file . On line 147 I took out ALL the info from inside the quotes. I had previously read that taking out the "--no-floppy" was sufficient, not in my case. Simply uncommenting the line will not work either.
So, line 147 should read: echo ""
After making those changes, "dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" (without quotes) needs to be run in terminal as root (sudo)
i.e. $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc"

If I can get into this directory and file, I can do what is suggested but a list of the commands I should perform would really help since I am good at repetition and following direction. :)
