Oh sorry! I should have told you. Yes, I have 3 disks: 2 SATA for Linux and 1 EIDE for Windows. This is why I have (hd2,0). This is correct, yes? I use to have ubuntu which use lilo and that was working fine. Maybe, I should go back to lilo but I rather stay with grub being more powerful.... usually!
