My son is a Windows user for playing games. I do not want him using Windows when he chooses since the gaming gets in the way of school, as it should for any healthy 14 year old boy. ;-)
If you're using an NT-based version of windows (NT4, 2000, XP, or one of those fancy Vista previews), you can use the Administrator account (or any user with admin rights, e.g. your wife) to disable your son's account when he isn't allowed to be gaming. Or, change his password to something of your choice, and type it in for him when he is allowed to play, same as you would at the GRUB prompt.
And if you're using a Windows <NT4, I hope for your sake it doesn't have network drivers installed. :)
What I really want is when the machine turns on he gets Linux unless myself or my wife grants him access to Windows.
How's your C? ;) HTH. -- [email protected] mailing list
