Also is there any way I can modify the Dual Boot menu so that
Windows is the >default operating system until I am confident that Linux will do all that I >want it to.
If you want to have GRUB start with Windows, you will need to update /boot/grub/menu.lst using your favorite editor along with the sudo command. At the end of the file, there should be a divider called: ## ## End Default Options ## After this divider, there will be a list of operating systems to use for booting. You will need to move the windows option to be right below the divider. GRUB automatically boots on the highlighted option so if windows is the top option, it will boot there automatically. The windows option should look like the following: # This entry automatically added by the Debian installer for a non-linux OS # on /dev/sda1 title Windows Vista/Longhorn (loader) root (hd0,0) savedefault makeactive chainloader +1 Mine is running Vista so yours should list something like Windows XP for the title.
