I'm guessing your winders drive isn't root (hd0,1). Remember that grub and linux order their disks differently.
I just installed Ubuntu on this laptop and when I first looked for XP in the grub menu list it wasn't there. I googled it and the web page said to add the following:
title Microsoft Windows XP Professional
root (hd0,1)
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader +1
I get Error # 13 "Invalid or unsupported executable format" Now that I've added those lines.
Question: Does it matter where I add it at? I added it before:
### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
Also here is my fdisk info:
Disk /dev/sda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7296 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x321d321c
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 2 3071 24659775 f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/sda2 * 3072 3320 2000092+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda3 3321 7296 31937220 83 Linux
/dev/sda5 2 3071 24659743+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
I added the fdisk info because on one forum it was asked for and never provided.
Thanks for any help.
