open a terminal switch to root
type in vi /boot/grub/grub.conf
hit the i key on the keyboard
using the up/down, left/right keys scroll down to where it says Default=0
change to
Default=1
also while your in there if your going to boot into the latest kernel
put a # mark in front of the other kernel listed. here is a example
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0 <----- change this to 1
timeout=8
splashimage=(hd0,5)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
