Dear Steven,
My grub is a little different from standard
(because I downloaded the source), but anyway it
looks to me like there are two reasons why you
can't boot Windows with your configuration. Consider:
> title DOS
> rootnoverify (hd0,4)
> chainloader +1
I would change this to:
title DOS
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
The first problem - I'm assuming that you have
Windows installed at /dev/hda1, which in grub
lingo is (hd0,0). The second problem is that
Windows needs its boot partition marked "active"
which is why you need the "makeactive" command.
Let us know if this works.
regards,
Robert Storey
