HI
Login as root
fire up gedit:
open /boot/grub/grub.conf
You'll see something like this:
*******************************************************************************
[root@bear bob]# cat /boot/grub/grub.conf
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,0)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=5

Look for title Other
and change it to WinXP
under it you should have also
root
no verify ( which is some windoze thing )
You can change the time to wait in:
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=5
Change timeout to more if need be.
When you get bored with XP you can bin it!
Cheers
Bob

Hi all. I installed Linux (Ffedora) in one harddrive, and window XP in another harddrive of the same PC. It boots from Linux, but displays the following: Linux Other I have 5 seconds to select either of the 2 options. After 5 seconds, it authomatically selects Linux if I don't select "other (the other refers to Window XP)". I need support in configuring for the following: * Change the "other" option to "Wndow XP" * Change the option timing from 5 seconds to 20 seconds. Regards, Paul
