Good afternoon, dudes,
After a long time cracking up my head with the GRUB loader order because i was having some serious problems with my keyboard in the console, i got really pissed off and was almost sending Debian by the Windows (got it?), but today i just got it right.
So i'm going to spill the milk and give a hand for these two situations:
GRUB BOOT LOADER ORDER:
Commands you will do:
1) ENTER AS "root":
1.1) su
1.2) "enter with you password"
2) GET IN THE GRUB DIRECTORY: cd /boot/grub
3) FIND OUT IF YOU HAVE THE ARCHIVE: ls | grep grub
3.1) IF (grub.cfg == EXISTS)
EXECUTE: vi grub.cfg
ELSE
TRY TO FIND THE RIGHT ARCHIVE TO EDIT
4) LOOK FOR THE TITLES, THE LINES WILL START WITH "menuentry 'the_name_of_OS' "
5)COUNT HOW MANY "menuentry" ARE THERE AND CHANGE THE LINE:
"set default="NUMBER OF THE DEFAULT" "
6)PRESS "Esc" , PRESS ":x" , PRESS <Enter>
7) Mazel Tov, dudes! Just restart your equipment and start a fiesta, because this baby is done.
PS.1: If you don't like the title or just want change the title of the OS in the boot loader, you can change it when you get in STEP 4).
PS.2: Remember that you have to count the boot order from 0. So if you have 3 OSs and you want to select the third in the list you'll put "2" in STEP 5).
CONSOLE KEYBOARD PROBLEM:
Well, i went looking all over Google and the guys had some real fancy stuff coming up to just resolve the problems, but as i'm not quite a specialist in the Linux-way of doing things, so i found a real simple way of editing the system files (that's why i was able to adjust the boot loader).
When you get to the file you want, just use:
gedit <THE BLOODY FILE YOU WANT>
That's it, bros.
Hasta la vista, babes.
