I have a machine that is running FC1 on hda
I also have win98 installed on the second drive (from linux, hdb )
These OSes were installed one at a time,with only one drive in when
installed.
What I want to do is put the windows drive in as the second drive and
setup grub to dual boot. It appears from the grub documentation that I
should be able to write a stanza in the grub.conf file similar to
title Windows
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
makeactive
boot
However this fails.
Has anyone had any luck doing this? and if so what are the errors I am
making?
Or should I bite the bullet, move the windows drive to the first
position, and reconfigure the fstab and grub.conf to boot fedora from
the second drive?
