Hi All,
I posted before but this is sort of an update. Still need help.
I am trying to get Grub to boot all the OS's I have installed. It appears to be a tricky thing to accomplish.
Here is what I did:
New Dell 4600 (3ghz, 512ram, 80gig HD) with XP Home installed. I added a 160 gig HD and made it master and the 80 a slave (XP has the whole 80gig drive).
On the 160 I put Win98se on the first 40, then swap, then SuSE and finally Mandrake.
Both SuSE and Mandrake are in their own single partition (I did not separate / and /Home).
Steps;
I installed Win98se, then I installed SuSE. The Win98 drive did not show up arigionally in Grub but I edited it and it worked fine then. My XP drive did show up but Grub will not boot it because it does not recognise the file system (is there a workaround for this?).
I then installed Mandrake 9.2 and told it to skip the boot loader. Went back into SuSE and edited Grub again but no dice.
Here is what I have:

What 's the result if you use rootnoverify (hd1,0) ?? It 's what i use for FreeBSD.
chainloader +1 makeactive
Maybe you can remove this last line (or replace by "go to trash" :lol: It's only a suggestion, i never installed M$ system on my computer !)

Anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Here are the partitions:

hdb1 XP Home NTFS
