Thanks, I found the followoing in my /boot/grub/grub.cfg
menuentry "Microsoft Windows XP Professional (on /dev/sda1)" {
insmod ntfs
set root=(hd0,1)
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set d44c012f4c010dc4
drivemap -s (hd0) ${root}
chainloader +1
}
So there are two other additional lines apart from what you sent, which are
the search and drivemap commands. And the computer does not boot to XP with
this. I have no idea how to edit so that it could boot to XP.
Sincerely,
Moz
