Default Startup

[Njoku, George O.]

Assuming you still want grub to be boot loader...

 

Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst

 

 

Change "default=0" to "default=# of Windows entry"

 

 

e.g

 

title Linux                            à entry 0 

                blah

 

title Windows                    à entry 1

                chainloader +1

 

 

Therefore you'll change it to "default=1"

Subject: Default Startup

 

I want to change the default startup program to Windows (it is Ubuntu at the moment). I want to leave Ubuntu so I can become more familiar with it at a relaxed pace. Although I have searched through Ubuntu to find the Grub (?) screen that allows me to change the default, I can't find it. Can someone please direct me to the Ubuntu documentation that addresses this startup issue?  

 

Thanks,

Edgar Young
