Dear Gentoo Community, I was wondering if anyone knew how (whether) it is possible to set temporary options to grub.
I am on a dual-boot setup with Gentoo Linux being the first choice in grub's config file. When I perform a restart, most of the times it is in order to subsequently boot Windows. With the current setup, however, I need to press the restart button (in Xfce), wait patiently till the computer restarts, wait for the grub screen and change the option before the 5 seconds time-out expires. I find annoying when I miss out the time-out, because of my going away from the computer screen. Basically, I would like to issue a command (restart with a certain grub temporary setup change), go make myself a cup of tee and come back and see the Windows login screen. Could anyone suggest a way to do something similar? Liviu -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
