Wow. It sounds like your system is very messed up. The bios is ALWAYS supposed to make the boot drive appear as hd0. It should not be possible to not have an hd0 and hd1, but then have an hd2. I am relatively certain that there is no way to get windows to boot on such a system as it's boot loader will ONLY read from hd0.
You can prevent this from reverting when you upgrade kernels by finding the line in menu.lst that looks something like: # groot=(hd0,0) And changing it to read hd2. -- Grub pointing to (hd0,0) instead of (hd2,0) https://launchpad.net/bugs/51009 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
