Uninstalling grub using vista?

August 6th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Grub starts up as the default boot loader. I want to remove grub so that the windows boot loader will be the default boot loader.

      That's usually not a good idea. To boot other operating systems with the Windows bootloader takes a lot more work.

      It would be a far better solution to change the position of Windows in the GRUB menu so that it will be booted first. Just enter into your terminal

      sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst

      and move the Windows entry to the top of the list.
