To be honest, it's probably easier to get grub to boot windows than it would be to get windows to boot your LFS system. Google for it. :) Once you find the command to do it in grub you can test it from your rescue disk. Once you've tested it and are happy with the results, you can then install grub to the MBR of hda. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
