Here is something I'd like for it to do that it does not do by default, and which seem to require (somehow) a bit of research to configure.

What I want is simple. Select the OS that I chose the last time.

Note: I am running 11.10 now which I believe is GRUB 2 but I don't know what version (1.99?)

check the grub version using grub-install -v command in terminal. – iKrshnan Feb 9 at 10:50
And, I have two solutions, but none of them would choose the OS which selected last time. 1st one would help to select which OS should be boot-up on next start-up and 2nd one just to set another OS as default to boot-up on every start-up. Do you want them? – iKrshnan Feb 9 at 11:19

I think I've figured out how to set the default (set an index for the entry in /etc/default/grub, run update-grub after) but setting for the next startup would be useful. – Steven Lu Feb 9 at 17:15
Sorry for the delay. grub-choose-default may help you to choose OS for next start-up before shutting down the current one. :) – iKrshnan Feb 18 at 5:38
