Today I successfully installed SuSE Linux 8.2 on my machine (formerly running only Win XP). Problem: after selecting "windows" in the boot screen, I get the following message and does NOT load Win XP.
"root (hd1,0) Filesystem type is fat, partition type 0xc chainloader +1"
FYI. My drive configuration prior to SuSE Linux installation was as follows: The HD housing Windows XP was my PRIMARY/MASTER (/hda) My CD-Writer was the PRIMARY/SLAVE drive (/hdb) My CD-ROM drive was the SECONDARY/MASTER HD (/hdc)
I made changes prior to the SuSE Linux installation, as follows: My NEW Hard Drive for Linux was now the PRIMARY/MASTER (/hda) The HD housing Windows XP was my PRIMARY/SLAVE (/hdb) My CD-ROM drive was the SECONDARY/MASTER (/hdc) My CD-Writer was the SECONDARY/SLAVE (/hdd)
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Windows cannot boot from the 2nd harddrive windows needs to be hda and not hdb With Linux it does not really matter. Ian - -- A child of five would understand this.
