Default Re: os selection......

@syk : his default line is not correct,win boots w/o showing timeout even if timeout is set to 30.


@ninad ...change ur boot.ini to following:
[boot loader]
timeout=7
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOW S
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect
