"The GRUB configuration file is /boot/grub/menu.lst.
Some distributions use another configuration file; for example, Red Hat Linux uses the file /boot/grub/grub.conf.
How do you change the default OS that GRUB loads?
In menu.lst, perhaps found somewhere beneath /boot, there is an entry: "default."
"default" is the index number of the title entry that you want.
default 0
title Suse
...
title Windows
...
In the above example, the default is "Suse." If you wanted to change it to "Windows," you would set default to 1"

Okay still on editing boot manager....
I installed Fedora C5 on the unallocated space on my second hard drive which is just used for storage.
Whenever i reboot I dont get the Grub loader to boot into linux or windows, it just boots into windows. Looking through partition magic i can see the bootable linux partition on my second hard drive.
Should I move that partition to be before the C partition?
