e to use the 'map' command to
chainload Win9x/NT from a second harddrive. I tried this but without
success. I guess I invoked the command wrong:
root=(hd1,0)
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
chainload+1
boot
thanks,

isk is number two. Is this because
GRUB fetch this information from the BIOS?
BTW: Is that right that Win9x must be started from a primary partition on
the _first_ disk? If not, how do I have to involve GRUB right to start
Win9x?
