I don't think CMOS is a good solution. It involves extra hardware. I'm
affraid that any hack of this type will never be included in the official
sources.

Consider placing menu.lst on a FAT partition. Every OS should run a script
on startup that would point "default" to that OS. Yes, there is "sed" for
Windows too :-)
