Grub2 thinks it is hd0 Grub2 thinks it is hd1.
Do not rely on this. That is why grub2 has "search" command to find how disk that you need is actually called.
Add this menu entry in /boot/grub2/grub.cfg in the "custom entries" section.
This will be lost next time grub.cfg is rebuilt (kernel update, grub update, calling yast bootloader).
This is all true, and there is the search feature in the SuSE version of the menuentry for Windows XP, but apparently it gets it wrong (in assigning 'root'). So for now I just left it out and assigned it manually with set root=(hd1,1) Also, for some unknown reason, Windows doesn't like drivemap -s (hd1) (hdo) that SuSE has chosen. It only wants the one-way map swap drivemap (hd1) (hd0) And it all may be lost next time I update the kernel, but I can expect the SuSE partition to boot, and then I can go back in and fix the Windows menuentry. -- Tony Alfrey tonyalfrey@earthlink.net "I'd Rather Be Sailing" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
