Well, there is a trick around this by remapping the hdd within grub.conf
that gives you something like

title Windows XP
	map (hd0) (hd1)
	map (hd1) (hd0)
	rootnoverify (hd1,0)
	makeactive
	chainloader +1

Look through the list archive for the thread "Dual boot fedora and
windoz-xp" or read http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=116009942500003&r=1&w=2
