I really don't know what I should do with your report.
Maybe you can reproduce this and tell us when exactly that is shown?

 In the console it says root=hd1,2 when Linux works. It's root=hd1,3 after 
 trying the Windows entry.
 

 ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###
 menuentry Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (on /dev/sda3) {
   set root=(hd1,3)
   chainloader +1
 }

I think this is with intent.
Normally the chainloader command should never return, i.e. should
suceed.

Bug#492964: grub-pc: cross install Windows: invalid identifier

2008-07-30 Thread Sladan
Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080724-2
Severity: normal

I did grub-install sda and selecting Windows in the Grub2 menu returns 
invalid identifier. When selecting Linux after trying Windows it returns you 
have to load a kernel first. I can boot Linux after a reboot and Linux is 
always OK whithout trying the Windows entry first.
Windows is on sda3 (SATA) and Linux on hda2 (PATA). In the console it says 
root=hd1,2 when Linux works. It's root=hd1,3 after trying the Windows entry.
