I guess so. On HD0 (1st IDE channel, master, Samsung) GRUB is installed in
MBR and Windows XP on NTFS. On HD1 (2nd channel, master, WD600) Linux is
installed.

When I boot, normally the GRUB boot loader shows me a menu where I can
select to boot Windows or Linux. This doesn't appear anymore with F10. I
only get the GRUB command line.

Yes. But I will try to change it and look what happens.

I will try this.

Thanks,
