# save as ~/Desktop/sktopĮxec=sh -c 'gksu 'grub-reboot 2' & gnome-session-save -shutdown-dialog'īut I don't know how it could be integrated into the system menu. This command can easily be made available as a launcher #!/usr/bin/env xdg-open Where ENTRY could be a number relative to a menu entry (numbered starting from 0), or an exact menu entry title, for example sudo grub-reboot 'Microsoft Windows XP Professional (on /dev/sda1)' Now, if you want to set in advance what should be the system to boot the next time, use sudo grub-reboot ENTRY Then update grub configuration file: sudo update-grubįrom now on, at each boot grub will start the last used entry. So if you have not already done so, modify /etc/default/grub and set GRUB_DEFAULT=saved It seems to only work when you have grub configured to start with the last saved entry.

There is a grub command just to do so, it is grub-reboot.

You can also create a launcher for the above command,so that double clicking the launcher will reboot into windows.

If this is your grub menu and if you want to boot into windows you should give the value of X as 5.

Where X is the menuentry position of the OS you want to restart in from the GRUB menu.(starting with 0 as the first entry) Or you can execute the following command in your terminal sudo grub-reboot X

sudo chmod +x switch-to-windows.shĪnd now you can run this script from terminal to reboot into windows./switch-to-windows.sh WINDOWS_ENTRY=`grep menuentry /boot/grub/grub.cfg | grep -line-number Windows` Now create a script file, sudo gedit switch-to-windows.sh Update your grub using the following command. Search for the line GRUB_DEFAULT=0 and modify it to GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
