Hi :)
I thought a standard install of grub2 would be sufficient?

Then move all the other OSes above Ubuntu so that Ubuntu is bottom of the list 
by doing; 
cd /etc/grub.d

sudo mv 30_os-prober 08_os-prober

That way it doesn't matter about all the extra lines that Ubuntu uses.  

Then set the value of "Default" to which OS you want as the default
/etc/default/grub 

Finally update-grub so that it finds all the changes you have made;

sudo update-grub

I got most of this from Marc Stewart on 2010-04-30 and some from Ubuntu's 
Community Documentation page which seems to need breaking up although i really 
quite like the way it's all there easily accessible on 1 page.
