Hi Brent,
What I do for my WIN98 and WIN NT on the second harddrive is set up
small partitions (~10 meg) on the first hard drive for booting and my
main windows partitions (multi gig) on the second hard drive. That way
all the files needed for chainloading windows can be found on the first
hard drive in a very small space. I don't know if this work around
will be applicable to your situation but I can say it does work
vis-a-vis this is how my OSes are setup with grub 0.5.92. Hope this
option helps.
