Changing default boot selection

[Richard E Miles]

> Many months ago I installed fedora on my PC with dial boot capability.  I may have made an error in not having a separate system for Fedora linux in that default boot is fedora and not Windows.  I find I use windows more than Fedora and find I can't leave my system when I reboot (updates, installations, etc) or it will default to Fedora on reboot if I am not there to select "DOS".

To change the boot order. In your /boot/grub/grub.conf file change the default
number to the relative position of your Dos entry. The numbers start at 0. The
next would be 1, etc.
