It might actually be a Windows issue rather than a grub issue. Historically Windows has been really picky about being on /dev/hda1. I've heard rumors that newer versions are less picky about it, but then again I recall hearing rumors that you never needed to defrag ntfs, so...
I'd probably repartition and reinstall (maybe using disk images to minimize the pain). I also recall seeing somewhere bootloader settings that would trick Windows into thinking it was on /dev/hda1, but I can't recall where. It may have been back in the lilo days. tldp.org is never a bad place to look. ----- Original Message ---- From: Peter Humphrey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, April 9, 2007 7:14:45 AM Subject: Re: [gentoo-amd64] Amoeba file system On Monday 09 April 2007 14:49:18 Wil Reichert wrote: > Going to guess here that your XP install isn't on the first partition > of the drive its on?

So anyway, that's why I stick with Boot Magic. -- Rgds Peter Humphrey Linux Counter 5290, Aug 93 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
