Endless OS as first boot?

Good day Endless Team.

How to setup Endless OS as first boot option instead of windows?

Thank you.

Hey Romeo, we’ve actually added support for automatically saving the last setting in the last version of the OS, 3.0.4, released a couple of days ago, but at the moment our installer copies over the bootloader at install time and we don’t update it automatically. So you could uninstall/reinstall, or if you’re feeling adventurous you can edit the file c:\endless\grub\grub.cfg under Windows and set the value of default from 0 to 1. However, you will need to go through some hoops to see/edit this file: it’s marked as hidden and system (you can enable seeing these in Explorer -> Folder Options or something) and has an ACL (right click -> Properties -> Security -> Advanced -> Edit) which says it’s not readable/writable by Everybody, which you need to delete as well…

Hello ramcq,

I’m not feeling adventurous at the moment so i’ll uninstall/reinstall for now :relaxed:.

Thank you and keep up the excellent job Endless Team.

Cheers. :tropical_drink:
