If, like I do, you have to work in Windoze mostly but you want
you Linux there when you need it, you mostly need the machine to
default to the M(e)S(s) OS.
The instructions for setting this in GRUB is to start counting at
zero, see what the line number is for Windoze and then enter it
in grub.conf. Well, what they fail to tell you is that the line
that says something like "Other OSes" that comes before the MS OS
also counts! So instead of it being #3 on my machine, it is #4.
This is true for Xubuntu and a couple of others I have run into
but it is not universal so YMMV.
Best,
Allen
