Mandrake 9.1 - Newbie

[Peter van Hout]

Well I loaded Mandrake 9.1 onto my PC after backing up all my data from the second drive to the first drive.  All was sweet until the reboot.   The boot loader loaded OK but I can not load into XP. It tries to then XP wants to either loan into the last known good configuration, go into safe mode and that type of stuff.   Before I wade into the Mandrake site, has anyone else had this problem with Mandrake?   System I have is as follows:   P4 2.4 with 512 RAM 2 x 80G IDE drives GForce Ti card with 128M RAM Live 5.1 sound card any other stuff   Mandrake installed Linux onto hdb1 and I asked it to allocate 20M on this drive to Linux, which it did.  I can still see all my data on this drive that WIN XPP had ie My Documents folder and all subfolders and files.   Peter
