grub - problems with multi-boot with w2k
Hello
I`ve got a problem with configuring grub.
My hard disks are:
Primary Master: (3 partitions)
partition 0: linux - grub installed
partition 1: ... doesn`t matter
partition 2: ... fat32 - old windows 2000
Primary Slave: (1 partition)
partition 0: ntfs - new windows 2000
Secondary Master: (1 partition)
partition 0: ntfs - stuff
Secondary Slave: cd
When I start (setting up previously booting from Primary Slave) New Windows 2000 everything is ok, Windows starts up. But I wanted to start everything from disk Primary Master and I configured grub in a way that
1) linux starts with no problems,
2) old windows I have written sth like this in grub.conf:
> rootnoverify (hd0,2)
> chainloader +1
and this windows starts with no problems
3) new windows is sth what makes me crazy:
I`ve tried:
> rootnoverify (hdXX,YY)
> chainloader +1
where XX=1,2,3 and YY=0,1,2,3,4 (I know that some of these values are completly stupid). As for me it should work with such options:
> rootnoverify (hd1,0)
> chainloader +1
but it doesn`t.
thanks for help to anyone.
