Hi,

I have 4 partitions : 

hda1 for XP
hda2/3/4 for linux root/boot/swap

I installed the grub into MBR. It worked well. I
wanted to mount the ntfs, so I did these:

make xconfig
make dep
make bzImage
grub-install /dev/hda1

then I restart the pc but couldn't get the boot menu.
So I reinstalled the RedHat 9 (also reformat the linux
partitions). Now I can see the boot menu and can boot
into Linux. However, if I select to boot XP, the pc
shows 

Booting "WinXP"

rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1

GRUB loading stage2...

then throws me back to the menu.

Could someone tell me what did I do wrong and how
could I fix it?

Thanks heaps

mqa
