Dear Moderators,
In my laptop, I have dual booting system, CentOS and Windows Vista. Now the CentOS is the default boot but I want the Windows vista as my default boot for time being. So could you help me how to do that?. Many thanks in advance. with regards, Malai |

Dear Gerald_clark,
Thanks a lot for your help. I have read that before posting here. To edit, do I need to login to root and what command I have to use to edit "/boot/grub/grub.conf and change default=0 ( first entry ) to the windows entry"could you explain in detail? Thanks. |
