Dear Sir

I am using RedHat linux 9 on a 40 GB HDD. The 1st partiotion contains windows 98 and 
the linux is installed in the last 6 GB space.

I am using a boot loader called XOSL (eXtended Operating System Loader) to boot Win 98 
or Linux. For that I had to install GRUB on the linux partition. Everything worked 
fine.

Recently I tried to install GRUB on the first partition using the command 
"grub-install /dev/hdo" from linux. After rebooting I found my HDD to be unbootable, 
even "fdisk /MBR" could not help. So I had to reformat my C partition and load windows 
again; and XOSL now worked fine.

I retried using the same command and had the same problem again.

Please look into the matter there may be some problem in how the command works.

If any more details are required pls mail me.

Thank you
Mandar Saraf
