hey everyone, I just finished rebuilding my machine and I repartitioned my box so that it looks like:
/dev/hda1 = windows xp (ntfs) /dev/hda2 = linux swap /dev/hda3 = gentoo (ext3) no, I don't have a separate /boot partition. Anyway, I followed the installation instructions (excellent btw!) and I'm having problems getting grub to install on my MBR. In the grub prompt, when I type in "root(hd0,0)" it would come back with something like "unrecognized file type". After that it's pretty obvious that the "setup(hd0,0)" wasn't going to work. I then ran root(hd0,2) and that went over fine but now when I boot up it goes right into windows xp and not the grub boot loader because it's not installed on the MBR. I'd appreciate any help.
