When I used lilo to boot with this in the lilo.conf file:

other=/dev/hda1
        label="theWin98se"
        table=/dev/hda
other=/dev/hdc1
        label="DrDos"
        table=/dev/hdc
        map-drive=0x80
           to=0x81
        map-drive=0x81
           to=0x80

Both Win98 & DrDos were fully bootable... 

But when I tried to use grub to boot with this in the grub.conf:

title theWin98se
        rootnoverify (hd0,0)
        chainloader +1
title DrDos
        rootnoverify (hd1,0)
        map (hd0) (hd1)
        map (hd1) (hd0)
        chainloader +1

Windows boots. DrDos doesn't quite make it. It gets as far as putting the
starting dos message on the screen. And then just hangs there. 

What am I missing here?  I'd hate to go back to lilo for the sake of
DrDos When it's working for all 4 of my linux and windows too. But I'm
stubborn, I don't often use the dos anymore, But I insist on having the
option at boot time.

Would someone be so kind as to tell me what the problem could be.
