Here's a copy of the boot menu that appears in colors when my computer
is turned on:
Windows XP (Autoboots in 10 seconds) (hda1, hd0,0)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ubuntu 7.10 (CD version ) (Installed on external HD -- hd2,2)
Ubuntu 7.10 (kernel 2.6.22-14-generic (CD version) hda2/hd0,1 sda2)
Ubuntu 8.04 (kernel 2.6.22-16-generic (DVD version)(hd0,2 sda3)
Ubuntu 8.04 (kernel 2.6.22-16-generic (CD version) (hd0,4 hda5, sda5)
Windows XP was chosen to autoboot because I have great-grandchildren who
bring their Windows game CDs when they visit. I have a few games for
them in UBUNTU
but I have to set them up. UBUNTU must be selected before the 10 second
autoboot
delay times out.
I edited /boot/grub/menu.lst in the external hard drive to create the
boot menu. I used the
copy/paste method to arrange the menu items then did a save.
