<0> yes
<1> I ***ume this is where i'll be putting windows
<2> :P
<2> yeap
<0> is that in the grub.conf ?
<1> yep
<0> what does it say for the device ?
<0> because i reccon it changed it to a standard dev
<0> hdax something
<1> /dev/sda1
<1> for windows
<0> well.....
<1> rootnoverify (sda1,0) chainloader +1 ?
<0> if your winblows is really on sda1
<0> then it should load
<1> no it's on another drive
<0> ehhh
<1> hda1 has linux
<0> i see the error
<1> sda1 has windows
<0> yes
<0> grub doesnt work liek that mate
<0> rootnoverify (1,0) chainloader +1
<1> that's all I need to put?
<0> I have no idea as what grub will see an sdx device
<0> how mnay controllers have ya got ?
<0> hda,hdb and then ?
<0> sda,sdb ?
<0> is that all
<1> just two
<1> hda and then sda
<0> one ide + 2 sata ?
<0> no....im talkign hardware wise
<1> 1 HDD on IDE and 1 HDD on SATA
<0> and are there 2 ide controllers connectors or 1 ?
<0> reason im asking is
<0> rootnoverify (1,0) chainloader +1
<0> (hddevice,partition)
<0> so
<0> sda
<0> will be 0
<0> 0 = first device
<1> first device right now is the IDE
<0> yes
<0> so try 2,1
<0> ehh 2,0
<0> sorry
<0> if that doesnt work
<0> try 4,0
<1> ok I have 2 IDE slots with 1 connected
<0> because then ya will have 2 ide connectors
<1> 2 SATA slots with 1 connected
<0> ok
<0> then try
<0> errrm
<0> 4,0
<1> ok I'll give it a shot
<1> quick question first...
<0> ohh wait
<0> hang on
<1> k
<0> lolol
<0> where are you putting the bootloader on
<0> it depends on the device ya write it to
<1> it's on hda1
<0> and whch device ya set as boot device
<0> ok
<0> then try 4,0
<1> I didn't want to mess with my windows stuff so I put everything on this IDE drive
<0> im not sure if grub counts hda,hdb,hdc,hdd first and then gets to sda...
<0> i ***ume it does
<1> so how come (sda1,0) won't work?
<0> because grub doesnt work like that
<0> it requires (0,0)
<0> as I explained
<0> (hddevice,partition)
<1> so it counts all hd's IDE and SATA the same way?
<0> it uses the same method yes
<0> but it dopends on where the boot loader is
<1> I see
<1> so why is it 4,0 and not 3,0?
<0> give it a try
<0> hda = 0
<0> b = 1
<0> hdc = 3
<0> 2
<0> =hdd = 3
<0> sda = 4
<1> b= boot?
<0> hdb
<1> rootnoverify (hd4,0) chainloader +1
<1> this correct? or do I not need the hd in there?
<0> thats for Others
<0> looks ok to me
<1> up top it says, "hiddenmenu" should I comment this out?
<0> you can change the title if ya want
<0> na leave it
<1> will it give me a choice when I reboot?
<0> have ya got a lcd ?
<1> or is the hiddenmenu not the selection menu
<1> yes, LCD
<0> no leave hidden menu
<0> change the timeout to 20 seconds
<0> lcds are slow
<1> ok changed.
<0> k
<1> I'm going to give this a try.. thanks! I'll be back
<0> k
<0> np
<0> ****
<0> lol
<0> hd(0,0)
<0> (hd0,0)
<0> rather
<0> ;-p
<0> sorry mate
<0> (hd4,0)
<0> just realized
<0> lol
<0> ;-p
<1> lol
<1> ok
<1> actually that's what I had
<0> didnt work ?
<1> didn't give me a menu to select from
<0> you have to use the arrow keys
<0> it was counting down right ?
<1> yes, it was
<0> lol
<1> I didn't see windows XP on the list though
<0> did it say other ?
<0> fedora and then other ?
<1> no, I changed it to "Windows XP"
<0> hmmm
<0> normally de wdont like pastes here
<0> but
<0> paste me the windows bit
<0> title ...etc..
<1> will I get kicked?
<0> no
<0> its only 3 lines
<1> title Windows XProotnoverify (hd4,0)chainloader +1
<0> sec
<1> I'm a newb so I dunno, but I would think that "hiddenmenu" is making it so I can't see the list
<0> leave the hiddenmenu..thats not the issue
<1> ok
<0> sec i think i may know whats wrong
<0> hang on
