drop into command line on MeeGo and run fdisk -l (as root) to see what
partitions are there. You are looking for a partition with type NTFS
there may be multiple partitions as there may be a rescue partition too
Note the NTFS partitions and then edit /boot/extlinux/extlinux/conf
Add a new stanza like
label Windows 7
menu label Windows 7
kernel menu.c32
append boot 1
Change the last line according to what you find in the fdisk -l listing. For
example, if your Windows partition is /dev/sda1 then it'll be 'append boot
0' if it is /dev/sda2 it'll be 'append boot 1' and so on.
