Thanks for replying.

I only want Ubuntu to have 10GB partition so i do the install manually. And at the summary page it trys to save the bootloader to hd0 i changed it to hd1 and when i boot from the slave from the BIOS the GRUB bootloader works and this comes up.

Ubuntu Kernel - Generic
Ubuntu Safe Mode
Windows XP Home etc.

There are six boot options and none of them work they all come with this error.

"Error 17. Cannot mount selected partition

Press any key to continue..."

When i press a key it returns me to the GRUB load screen.
