    Hi all,

    I have Ubuntu and Win 7 dual-boot on my Acer Revo net-top and when I turn it on it's Ubuntu that gets automatically booted. I'd like to change it so Win7 is automatically booted but I'd like to keep Ubuntu.

    Is this possible?

    Cheers.

    Yes. Presumably it is the GRUB boot loader?

    See here - http://askubuntu.com/questions/100232/how-do-i-change-the-grub-boot-order

    Its the default entry that you'll be looking for.

    You can manually edit the config files either and reinitialise the grub bootloader but the link above should work relatively easy.
