[PLUG] Dual booting

I've seen both chainloader (device)+1 and chainloader +1.  You can
setup your system for booting the win98 floppy so that it won't kill
your mbr by using the maps and then

chainloader (fd0)+1

I tried it with my win98 cd but grub just complains that the selected
device couldn't be found or something.

I tried to edit the map file and I put
(hd2) /dev/hdc

but I think I have to use
(hd2) /dev/scd0

since I'm using ide-scsi on that drive.  I should probably read more
grub documentation.  And also accept that windows really dosen't want
to be on a secondary HD.


Thanks, for all your help,
Jason
