what i meant was i remember using an extra option with the reboot command that allow me to boot in another O.S. inspite of the grub is set to my fedora at default ..


the command was

/sbin/reboot ?????? windows

so when restart the pc ,the grub screen will not be shown and i will directly boot into windows ..


and when rebooting windows the grub screen will be there again as normal ..
