    Excellent... it has been annoying me forever that the wrong OS loaded when i wasn't paying attention and too late to change it on start up...

    After installing Ubuntu Linux, that system is the first, or default, OS in boot order. The Windows dialog does not even list the Linux system as a choice for demotion. Can you post additional clues?

    Thanks very much!
