Hey Tom,
I was afraid you'd say that. You see, my setup has Windows XP on the
second disk much like this, but when I try booting from hd1 I get dropped
into GRUB...
# Windows XP
title Windows XP
rootnoverify (hd1,0)
chainloader +1
[root@uracil grub]#
I've also tried swapping the drives as follows and it still doesn't work....
# Windows XP
title Windows XP
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
[root@uracil grub]#
Both styles failed (dropped me into GRUB). Any ideas?
