Copy a DOS/XP/whatever boot sector over the MBR that GRUB installed. FIXMBR.EXE (should be on most 'Doze install CDs) will do this, or if you're really old-school, FDISK /MBR will do the same thing. There's probably a tool to do this on the Ultimate Boot CD as well. GRUB is erroring out because it can't find its stage 2, which was almost certainly on the Linux partition. -- I realised I was dyslexic after attending a toga party dressed as a goat. --Author unknown My blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress/ Matt G|There is no Darkness in Eternity/But only Light too dim for us to see --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
