dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/win/c/bootsect.deb bs=512 count=1
I then added this line to the boot.ini file in my windows boot partition:
C:\bootsect.deb="Debian"
This method worked for me with Lilo, but does not work with grub. When I select "Debian" from the windows boot loader menu, I get a "GRUB " message at the top of my screen and then the system is hung there doing nothing.
Interesting, if I boot from a grub boot floppy, I can chain-load grub from my linux root partition, like this:
root=(hd2,1) ; [(hd2) === /dev/hda] chainloader +1 boot
This loads grub from the linux partition and I can continue to boot debian without any problems. Grub only stalls when chainloaded from the windows boot loader. Has anyone else encountered this problem, or offer any insight? Cheers,
Paul
