In your /boot/grub/menu.lst - 

the default line should be set to saved
and all the OS listings should have a line at the end with savedefault.

It should look a little like this:

default         saved

...

title           Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.12 Default
root            (hd0,0)
kernel          /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet splash
savedefault
boot

title           Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.12-10-686
root            (hd0,0)
kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-10-686 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet splash
initrd          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.12-10-686
savedefault
boot
