Re: Uninstalling Debian GNU

[Steve Suehring <swsuehring@braingia.org>]

Hello,

I believe you'll have better luck on the Debian User mailing list for 
this type of question:

http://www.debian.org/MailingLists/subscribe

However, in the interest of helping you'll likely want to edit the boot 
loader's default file (either /boot/grub/menu.lst or /etc/lilo.conf) and 
change the order if it's Grub or change the "default" option if lilo 
(don't forget to run lilo after editing the file).

I wrote a bit of instruction for changing the boot order a while back, 
maybe you'll find it helpful?

http://www.braingia.org/webnotes/index.php?title=changing_boot_order_in_grub_and_lilo&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

If you still need assistance, I'd recommend pursuing it on the Debian 
User mailing list directly.

Steve
