If GRUB handles your booting, edit the /boot/grub/grub.conf file and
change the timeout value (it's in seconds).

If you use Windows to manage the booting, I think the file is boot.ini
in the root system drive.  There's a similar sort of option that goes in
it.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
