    Default OS boot up.

    I'm sure this question was asked before so here it is. How can I change the default boot up OS? I want to make Windows XP boot up first so I can connect online since I haven't found a way to set up Knoppix to connect me online yet. When I figure it out I want to make Knoppix load up as default. I'm new to Knoppix and need to learn a lot from it. I'll be asking a lot of questions here so please bare with me.

    How can I change the default boot and log in as root to do this?

    Thanks guys!

    I was going to delete this message since I found my answer but couldn't find a way to do it. Anyway, mission accomplished.

    Normally on a linux forum if you find an answer you can put [Solved] in the sunject header. The default boot choice is only
    a matter a changing boot order in the /boot/grub/menu.lst file as you have already discovered.
