Good day all,
I've been trying to load up a second HD with Windows XP on it this
morning. I've been reading through the GRUB menu and alot of what I can
find on Google but still to no avail. Any suggestions?
My current grub.conf
title Windows XP
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
rootnoverify (hd1,0)
chainloader +1

It looks like it starts to load the OS because the HD light comes on but
it just hangs.
My laptop's (HP Pavilion zv6015) grub.conf:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda

I keep Windoze on it since that seems the only way to get BIOS updates.
Cheers,
