To change boot order in GRUB.

[Camillus]

Hi, I am a noob with Linux. I have a problem with GRUB bootloader. I want to change the order of OS's ie. Win XP, Win2k, and Redhat.
Now i want to boot in XP automatically without manual selection to go to the DOS bootmenu everytime I start my PC.

Any help?

Follow this
1) Open the terminal and change to root with the su command
then cd /boot/grub
2) Edit your grub.conf file - If using a GUI then just type
gedit grub.conf

default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Fedora Core [kernel: 2.4.22-1.2174.nptl]
	root (hd0,0)
	kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb
	initrd /initrd-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl.img
title Fedora Core [kernel: 2.4.22-1.2166.nptl]
	root (hd0,0)
	kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2166.nptl ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb
	initrd /initrd-2.4.22-1.2166.nptl.img
title Fedora Core [kernel: 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl]
	root (hd0,0)
	kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb
	initrd /initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl.img

Here i have 3 entries for different linux kernal, u will have 1.
They are referred to be number starting at 0 so 0, 1, 2.
Change the line
default=0
to refer to the correct number. and lower the timeout value to 3 or something.
save and quit your text editor and your done. good luck!
