multi boot order

[fatgaz]

i have managed to multi boot a few o/s but would like to know if there is a way to edit which one starts as default eg if i do not choose the o/s when my computer starts up i would like vista to boot and not kubuntu
any answers would be most welcome

thanks not so fatgaz (on a diet)

in kubuntu open a terminal and enter

sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst

look for a line that says "## ## End Default Options ##"

Below that are the OS's listed in the order they appear in your boot menu, each entry has several lines, the first line starting with "title" and the last one should be a blank line, move them about to change the order, the top one will be the default.

Take a backup copy of the file before you start changing it though!

thanks for the quick reply

Spot the deliberate mistake in my first post :)

gedit is a gnome text editer so won't be installed on kubuntu :)

use

sudo kate /boot/grub/menu.lst

instead
