Make grub keep its default boot under kernel updates

Hello,

I want to use the Grub bootloader to boot up my system with my triple boot.

Now, i want to configure grub on my Ubuntu OS. How can I? I want to do stuff like editing the startup entries, like you could do with EasyBCD for Windows. Startup-Manager in the Ubuntu softwarecentre doesn do this. Can anyone give me a recommendation?

I had Windows XP and Ubuntu both installed. I could easily boot into either until Windows "fixed" the bootloader so that it now only boots into Windows. I guess there is no way to prevent Windows from doing this. So instead when it happens how do I quickly restore the GRUB bootloader? Also while… >>> More
