Hello there,

Try adding a map in there like this

map (hd1) (hd0)
map (hd0) (hd1)

now I am assuming that your windows is on /dev/sdb in linux or its it
your first drive if it is /dev/sdb the above code should work, put
this under the windows title :-)

the reason you are puting this twice is to swap both of the dirves

Hope that helps

Sincerely,
Christopher
