I have WinXP on hda1
The grub install failed to set up the boot block on hda since when I reboot I autmmatically come up in WinXP. I can boot using a floppy with fromhd=/dev/hdb1, but I would like to have grub work correctly and offer me choices.
OK forum, let me have it! |
ok you dont tell the problem very clear but i give it a try!
use any LiveCD to boot up into whatever level then:
#grub
> root (hd1,0)
> setup (hd1)
> quit
if it works when boot up then you can edit /boot/menu.lst to add in chainload for windows XP! as what i have:
title Windows XP
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
let us know how you go!
