I have recently installed uBuntu onto my laptop, where I also have Vista & Windows 7.

I can change the boot order for the Windows OSes - within Windows, but it doesn't list Ubuntu as an option - and Ubuntu is always the first one to boot (it was the last to be installed).

Aside from the boot option screen when it initially launches, can I change the order so it permanently uses Vista as the primary OS?
 
Thanks for the response guys.

I changed the grub load process (change default to 4 as suggested) this then loads to the windows option for loading specific Oses.

In summary it changes the boot sequence to load from a Windows OS (Longhorn in my case) and then specifically from Vista. You still need to set the Windows OS option from the boot.ini file in Windows as well as the Linux menu.lst file
