I imagine instead of setting the boot device from hda1 to hda (which
probably won't (doesn't) work), you should tell it to boot win by
default instead of linux. For some reason I can't get DrakConf to
run at this moment so I can't double-check this tho. See if there is
a default setting or a * beside one which indicates it is the
default...
