HI, How do I change the boot order in a dual boot with Ubuntu and WinXP or Win2k? I can change within a Windows dual boot situation...but not between Linux and Windows...Thanks
change which one grub lists as "default" .. then just move them in the boot.list file. .. should be using grub.. not the doze bootloader.
you will need to edit the grub file "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst". Then if you go to the section where is lists your operating systems, you can just rearrange the order they appear in the list. Then grub will use the same order when it boots.
Easy peasy, grub entries start at 0, hence why 1 is my Macpup entry (default) ~ (no need to move or rearrange things, it's all down to the default parameter). That's assuming you're using Grub. If you are using the Windows bootloader, just install Grub as any future Windows installs will bugger up access to any linux installs, at least Grub can be modified/fixed at any time.
