Call for testing with dual-boot scenarios (or more accurately, call for information)

Could people who have experienced difficulty with dual-booting between
their FC2 test2 installs and a Windows install of some sort get as much
as possible of the following information for me?  

If you could add the information to bug 116653, that'll be the most
helpful for tracking purposes, although mailing it here won't hurt as
well.

1) The geometry as reported by parted (if you can get from an old FC1
install and an FC2, that would really rule)
2) modprobe edd and then get the values from all of the files in
/sys/firmware/edd/int13_dev80
3) The output of 'geometry (hd0)' from a grub prompt in a running 2.6
kernel
4) The output of 'geometry (hd0)' from a grub prompt when booting from
the BIOS

Thanks,

Jeremy
