Simple Dual Boot Error

Hi...

 

I followed a couple of the dual boot guides and pretty much got everything working with only *hopefully* one noticeable problem...

 

I am dual booting XP and Leopard so I did the Chain0 method...

 

Everything goes good I restart and I get the menu to chose XP or OS X. If i pick xp it goes fine no probs. If I chose os x only one small prob... it goes to the darwin loader and then after the five second time out comes back to the list where i have to chose xp or os x......

 

If I press enter before the 5 second timeout is over I get a list of my 3 partitions. It alrdy highlights my xp partition so i have to go to the mac one and select that.... Then everything loads fine an dandy.

 

I wanna know if theres a way to avoid pressing enter then picking the mac partition at the darwin prompt....

 

it shouldnt b too hard to do... i just dont know how... hopefully someone else can help.

 

 

BTW idk if its imp or not but i have 3 partitions... since its an hp comp it has a partition for recover alrdy set in there.. u can guess the other 2 partitions..
