Not sure how many of you have seen this but the famous Linux bootloader GRUB has been redesigned by Nate Muench and has been named BURG.

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:n-muench/burg
sudo apt-get update

For a theme manager and whatnot, run these.

Code:

echo “deb http://www.sourceslist.eu/repo/ubuntu lucid main non-free” | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list

wget http://www.sourceslist.eu/?download=public.key -O- | sudo apt-key add -

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install burg-manager

Are you dual booting normally or with Wubi? Also, does the Live CD work fine?

You could edit your /boot/burg/burg.cfg and switch ubuntu and the other os's entries so ubuntu is listed first

The GRUB/BURG editor should let you change that.

Isn't a Gui editor a bit much when all it takes is a simple file edit? KISS, dude.
