Hi there ...

I installed StartUp-Manager, and the boot-time is now changed ...

I would like to use Windows7 as "Standard Operating System", and have marked it to be that ...

But ...

The StartUp-Manager in Zorin 6 Lite have decided to start up first with Ubuntu, the latest version.

I have 3 linux versions on my PC - Ubuntu, Linux Mint, and final Zorin OS 6 Lite, hvo I installed as the last "thing".

First I did install Windows7.
:?:
Quistion:
Is it not possible to get the StartUp-Manager to chose "Windows7" as standard for boot-up ?

I ask, because the rest of the family is more familiar to Windows the to Linux.

Greetings from
Jørn Rudolph in Copenhagen, Denmark

This works in 6 core and ultimate don't know if it will work in Z 6Lite
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer

then
Code:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install grub-customizer

and then start the grub customizer with
Code:
gksu grub-optimizer
