Grub boot sequence
Hi all...how can I change the boot sequence of grub when I first turn on my laptop? I need to do two thing basically:
1. change the time of automatically booting if I did not choose an option
2. how can have grub use windows as a default operating system first, unless manually specified otherwise.
Now the default is debian..I want my laptop to always boot with windows, unless I ask him to boot Knoppix. (what would be the command line to edit all this?)
Thank you in advance for your help.

Re: Grub boot sequence
You need to edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst
# sudo mcedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
1. adjust the line that says "timeout X" where X represents a number of seconds
2. adjust the line that says "default N" where windows coresponds to the N-th "title" entry in the file (counting from zero)
