Dual Boot Issue

[CHR1S]

I have a sinking feeling I have managed to do this backwards!

 

I installed XBMC (Live) Jaunty (I think, im crap with Linux) to the hdd, then created a new NTFS partition for Win7 assuming it would set up the dual boot but all I have is Win 7 now

 

Is there a quick and dirty way to set up the dual boot with XBMC taking priority?

 

Thanks

I always do windows first then linux second.

Problem is that I have my perfect XBMC setup done damn

I've made this mistake in the past too, Windows doesn't seem to like letting you use a non-M$ OS

 

Try EasyBCD, you can edit you're windows boot manager from that and it supports adding linux boots to it, plus you can add a taskbar button which lets you select which OS to load up following a restart:

Download EasyBCD 1.7.2 - NeoSmart Technologies

Yeah I agree, always install Windows first then Linux,

I tried all the grub stuff and failed miserably, so I downloaded the newest RC of XBMC (I usually try dailys) and it worked a treat, glad I did reinstall it now thanks all
