This is the best information available for Grub2. It includes this for 
example:

     $ grep menuentry /boot/grub/grub.cfg

will list every partition on your hard drives, and from this you can 
decide which partition to make default and then do so with:

     $ sudo grub-set-default Linux 2.6.32-22-generic

as an example. I think if you mess up your system, you can use these two 
commands from a Live CD.

I have not tried this yet :-)
