GRUB question

[killerasp]

i installed windows 98 on a HD then removed it and replaced it as a slave on the primary ide channel. So i have linux as IDE1 MASTER and windows on IDE1 SLAVE. Im using grub with RH 7.2. How can i edit grub so i can boot windows from the select menu at bootup?

You could try this in your /boot/grub/menu.lst file:


title=win98
rootnoverify=(hd1,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)


The two map lines fools win98 into believing it is primary master.

Not that this is _really_ related, but does anyone know where I can find comprehensive information about the GRUB boot loader?
