Hello!

I am using the grub 0.5.96 ext2fs disk image.

Curently i only have one primary partition on my harddisk. So i thought
it would be the right way to boot my DOS with this commands:

rootnoverify (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1

But this gave me the following error message:

Error 22: no such partition

Instead the partition is identified as (hd0,3). Linux
recognizes it as /dev/hda4 too. Is this right?
(booting with rootnoverify (hd0,3) works fine)

Maybe a geometry problem? 
grub:  CHS: 1024/255/63
linux: CHS: 1655/255/63


grub> geometry (hd0)

drive 0x80: CHS = 1024/255/63, The number of sectors = 26587575, LBA
   Partition num 3, Filesystem type is fat, partition type 0x6


linux> fdisk -l

Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1655 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes

   Device Boot    Start      End   Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda4   *         1       19   152586    6  DOS 16-bit >=32M


Thanks for your help!

Jan.
