    Hi There!

    I have the problem that i cant figure out why
    Windows XP wont boot. I installed Suse 9.3 as
    first OS and then I transfered with an Image
    tool (True Image) my Windows Partition to
    /dev/hde6 . By the way can grub handle Win XP
    on a ntfs partition? I tryed after it didnt
    worked - i made a new windows installation on
    fat32 but it still wont boot.

    I tryed to fix it with the yast module to do
    the grub configuration and on the shell.
    I used something like that and replaced x with
    different numbers. Imho its root (hd0,6)

    title Windoof XP
        root (hd0,x)
        makeactive
        chainloader +1
