you need to edit /boot/grub/grub.conf. the line `default=___' should
say `default=1' if F11 is the 2nd entry
on your list.
Here is my menu.lst file.
I do have a separate /boot partition sdb1
WindowXP is on sda
Fedora 11 is on sdb
With this menu.lst, I did a, grub-install --recheck /dev/sda , and
when I do a reboot I get a Error 21.
Thanks for your responds.
