Re: Trouble dual booting with GRUB

i believe its menu.list is in /boot, also at boot you can drop out of graphical grub session (press escape), to enter the text based grub chooser menu, at this point. press "e" on the entry to edit, then select the line to edit, pressing "e" on it again to edit that one line. now start renumbering (re ordering), start with root(0,0) and change to root(1,0). press enter to confirm, then press "b" to boot. If that doesn't fix, try with changing the kernel from /dev/sda# to /dev/sdb# (where # represents the original a,b,c,d...).

I have extreme trouble with this myself, please tell me there is an easy way from grub to auto fix itself.
