You set the default OS with the "default" command. Here's the reference to it in the GRUB manual:

http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/man...b.html#default

If you want to dual-boot with WinXP, your menu.lst file might look something like this:

timeout 15
default 0
color light-blue/black light-cyan/blue

# (0) Linux
title Linux
root (hd0,5)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/hda6 ro vga=794
initrd /boot/initrd26.img

# (1) WinXP
title WinXP
rootnoverify (hd0,0)

chainloader +1
