Ah-Ha! Thought there must be something strange going on! :-)
Thanks for the tip and explanation.
I guess THE use is the circumstance where you have a linux box and wish to add
Windoze on a second drive. Could your tip be used to point Windows to a
partition?
Something like:
title Windows XP
root (hd0,3)
makeactive
chainloader +1
I have a horrible feeling this would fail - and how would you _install_
Windoze on partition 3 in the first place? Maybe forget this whole idea :-)
