Hi!

I am trying to find the file /boot/grub/menu.lst for setting windows as default on grub boot but there is no such file!

How can I set the dual boot default to windows..?

Ubuntu 9.10 and Win XP Pro.

Regards,

If my brother wanted to use my laptop, he would have to get used to what I have installed.

If he wasn’t happy, he could always buy his own.

Cool!

Thanks. I do have lots of OS installed on mine. Great that you posted a way to change the order of the OSes.

You may also want to visit my blog as linked here. I am using Linux for a month now, but not now since a recent order from the University Hotspot (DILNET) made public internet access restricted from Mon to Friday 7am to 7pm only. AMf.
