It shows how to change your default grub choice for *the next reboot only*. So if you boot into linux by default, you can always run a script that will tell grub to boot Windows (or any non-default kernel) for the next boot. [There's a script I wrote, and another poster refers to an earlier command-line only script. Or you can just see how it works and run grub at a command line.] http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?s=&threadid=145115 --Jack
