Hi,
Boot the opensolaris CD. The tricky part is next. Figure
out which cXtYdZs? holds your root rpool.
Then run
/sbin/installgrub -m /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2
/dev/rdsk/cXtYdZs?
Reboot into opensolaris. Once booted. Run fdisk on the disk
/dev/dsk/cXtYdZp0
Use the NTFS tag to figure out which fdisk partition has
windows.
Say it is 2 (as listed in fdisk output)
Then add the folowing line to your GRUB menu (you can
determine location of GRUB menu by running:
# bootadm list-menu
title Windows
rootnoverify (hd0, 1)
chainloader +1
Please note that you should subtract 1 from the partition#
listed in fdisk output since GRUB starts from 0 while fdisk
starts from 1.
Thats it. As always try this on a non-critical machine first
