Yes.  But Kubuntu 9.04 used to have a boot order setting tool under the System 
Settings App.  This has now been removed, so whichever system is installed, 
the User now has to get down and dirty to do something which used to be 
trivial.

Each time they bring out a new version, they add lots of new features, some of 
which are worth having, but remove something else that makes it harder for the 
new user.
