I have a problem using grub to dual boot. I have Win98 on /dev/hdb1
(marked as bootable) and Linux on /dev/hda1. I have GRUB configured
like this:

title Gentoo Linux GS
root (hd0,0)
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/kernel-2.4.23_pre8-gss root=/dev/hda1 hdc=ide-scsi

title Windows 98
rootnoverify (hd1,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1

Linux boots ok, but whenever I select Windows 98 - computer reboots
immediately (no error msg - just reboots). I have tried some other
configurations but with the same result.

When I swap the disks in the computer (hdb becomes hda), windows 
boot without a problem.

Does anybody know whether this could be a problem of grub ? Or just
windows don't like being on non-primary disk :-) ?


Thanks,

Marek
