Re: 2 hard drives 2 oses what do i do?
It seems that Ubuntu did not incluce XP in the grub configuration file (the bootloader, in case you aren't aware). That would happen if the secondary drive with XP was unplugged when Ubuntu was installed, and therefore not aware of it's existance.
Add an entry like this to /boot/grub/menu.lst: title Windows XP root (hd1,0) # this assumes that xp is in the first parittion of the second disk map (hd0) (hd1) map (hd1) (hd0) makeactive chainloader +1 |
