When I used lilo to boot with this in the lilo.conf file:
other=/dev/hda1
label="theWin98se"
table=/dev/hda
other=/dev/hdc1
label="DrDos"
table=/dev/hdc
map-drive=0x80
to=0x81
map-drive=0x81
to=0x80
Both Win98 & DrDos were fully bootable...
But when I tried to use grub to boot with this in the grub.conf:
title theWin98se
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
title DrDos
rootnoverify (hd1,0)
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
chainloader +1
Windows boots. DrDos doesn't quite make it. It gets as far as putting the
starting dos message on the screen. And then just hangs there.
What am I missing here? I'd hate to go back to lilo for the sake of
DrDos When it's working for all 4 of my linux and windows too. But I'm
stubborn, I don't often use the dos anymore, But I insist on having the
option at boot time.
Would someone be so kind as to tell me what the problem could be.
