You probably have to force LBA.

Subject: redhat and other OS's on same or different hard drives HOW?

Ok, for the second time i have installed win2k pro and linux rh this time 7.3 beta. both times when redhat boots up grub does not see my win2k.
my situation is this..
primary master HD 80 gig win2k pro
primary slave 80 gig 16gig partition for /
50 meg for /boot
2048megs for swap
 
ive red a howto on getting this to work, but it was a howto on the same hard drive.
i installed grub on hda MBR expecting grub to boot first and it being able to boot my other OS's.
i plan to make more partitions on pri/slave and install freebsd and perhaps other OS's or distros.
i understand i want grub on my current rhl 7.3beta install to do all the boot work.
if someone could show me the way or just post to this list a config to get
win2k pro to boot on the pri/slave drive when grun is on the pri/mas MBR i would GREATLY appreciate it.
 
Thanks for your time, and im SURE there are MANY others out there like me, i have been running around IRC servers and
MANY people were like, i wish i could do that. but redhat seems to trash my other installs.
 
PS* a friend told me that (cant think of the name) another distro went and found all his other OS's and when he rebooted grub had winxp pro i think it was
in the list. rhl seems to not do this. trashing other os's or atleast making it appear they are gone. however i dont think this is the case, but ill be DAMNED
if i can find them again..
 
Jim.
