Making windows7 default boot
I have a dual-boot system, with Windows 7 and Fedora 15. I would like for Windows 7 to be the default boot, and I thought that I knew how to do that. But apparently I do not. I have the default as 1, and Windows 7 is the first title. But it still boots up Fedora 15 if I just let it time out. Here is my /etc/grub.conf file:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,4) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root # initrd /initrd-[generic-]version.img #boot=/dev/sda default=1 timeout=60 splashimage=(hd0,4)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Windows7 rootnoverify (hd0,1) chainloader +1 title GNU GRUB 2, (1.98) kernel /grub2/core.img title Fedora (2.6.38.8-32.fc15.i686.PAE) root (hd0,4) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.38.8-32.fc15.i686.PAE ro root=/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root rd_LVM_LV=VolGroup/lv_root rd_LVM_LV=VolGroup/lv_swap rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYTABLE=us rhgb quiet initrd /initramfs-2.6.38.8-32.fc15.i686.PAE.img title Fedora (2.6.35.13-92.fc14.i686.PAE) root (hd0,4) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.35.13-92.fc14.i686.PAE ro root=/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root rd_LVM_LV=VolGroup/lv_root rd_LVM_LV=VolGroup/lv_swap rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYTABLE=us rhgb quiet initrd /initramfs-2.6.35.13-92.fc14.i686.PAE.img title Fedora (2.6.34.9-69.fc13.i686.PAE) root (hd0,4) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.34.9-69.fc13.i686.PAE ro root=/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root rd_LVM_LV=VolGroup/lv_root rd_LVM_LV=VolGroup/lv_swap rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYTABLE=us rhgb quiet initrd /initramfs-2.6.34.9-69.fc13.i686.PAE.img |
They are numbered starting from 0. default 0 will boot Windows.

Yup, that works. For some weird reason I thought they started with 1. Guess that is what I get for thinking. :-)
