And this brings us to my odd little situation.
I installed two new 300GB SATA Drives in my Shuttle. I partitioned the first one with 100GB for a new Linux install, 10GB swap, and 190GB NTFS partition (onto which I cloned my old ATA Windoze2000 bootable drive before removing it from the system entirely).
So, now I have a lovely, bootable via GRUB, Linux system. I've managed to make it fully functional, but I just can't boot the Windoze partition to save my life. Could this be because it's beyond "the 1024 boundary"?
Well, ok. If that's the case I can move things around, but where to move them, and how to best do it so as not to lose data?
I'm feeling kind of like an idiot at this point. It's been a decade since I was hacking kernels and I could use a little hand holding. :-)
PS: Did I hose myself by replacing Windoze's MBR with GRUB's MBR? Do I need to reinstall Windoze's MRB with "fdisk /mbr" or something? (fdisk /mbr doesn't seem to work from windoze2000's command prompt...) hrmmm....
Cheers!
