    select default OS in SUSE 10

    Hi,

    I have a dual boot in my machine (SUSE 10 32bit and 64 bit), How can i change the default OS when it reboots. ( we change in /etc/grub.conf file default variable in RHEL5).

    I make SUSE 10 64 bit as my default OS when it is booting how can i change this to SUSE 10 32 bit?

    Thanks

    Open /boot/grub/menu.lst file and set default value.

    Note that you'll need root access to edit the file:

    Open a terminal or konsole...

    Code:
    su
(enter root password when requested)
    Code:
    nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
    ...edit the file as suggested above and save the file, then reboot.
