>>Hi there!
>>
>>Ok guys this is what I got:
>>
>>The history:
>>I installed Linux on my second IDE and let the installation
>>olace de bootstrap loader (aka LILO) reside in my MBR on IDE 1
>>
>>The Facts
>>I share my computer with my brother and my nephews and they
>>aren't much of a hacker, so it's quite awkward (not to mention
>>uncomfortable) to type 'win95' everytime the computer boots.
>>(they obviously use windows95!)
>>
>>The question:
>>How can I change the default OS for LILO? It defaults to Linux
>>if some time ellapses or you just press <enter>. How can I make
>>it so by pressing <enter> they'll boot straight to win95?
