iv got a dual boot with xp and jaunty heres my fdisk
i can boot into jaunty by using the super grub disk. super grub disk shows that i have 4 hds for some reason it shows hd0 is sda, hd1 is the sdc3 in the fdisk, hd2 is jaunty, and hd3 is a copy of hd1. so i went into my menu.1st and added root (hd2,0) and tried to boot and it worked
grub doesnt even come up to let me select anything on boot just gives the error 17. im not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to linux so how do i go about making grub see the drives correctly or making grub boot correctly with its current configuration i really dont care as long as it works and i dont have to use the grub disk to get into my os's anymore
