Editing the boot menu order?


I set up Mandriva LE 2005 and chose the default LILO graphical bootloader.

It's great and all, but it defaults to Linux, and I'd rather it default to my windows boot. How can I edit the boot list so that windows is default?

From memory i can tell:

Enter to mandriva control center (is it still called like that?)
and choose 'configure boot loader'; there you can change your settings.

Also you could edit the file
/etc/lilo.conf

change the line that says:
default=Linux
to whatever you want and finally run lilo:
/sbin/lilo

Regards
