Changing boot order

I'm dual booting Zorin 8 and Zorin 9. Zorin 8 is installed on SDA and Zorin 9 is on SDB (separate HD's) I've got 9 working the way I want now, and would like to get rid of 8, or at least change the boot order so 9 is first on the list or the default. As it is now, 8 is the default so I have to wait for the boot screen to come up and select 9 to load. Any suggestions?

all you have to do is edit grub config.

I found a pretty simple walkthough here.

I didn't know there was a gui app for it. you never know what you might find when googling =D

Hi,

I am on a school system (most Linux sites are blocked by admin!) at the mo so I don't know if the link to Ask Ubuntu that Linx posted talks about this:

http://sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair-cd/home/Home/

A very handy tool for any boot problem!.
