Good morning, friends!
I have windows 98se at /dev/hda9 (it is called unit F: by Windows). As we know windows 98 put its initialization files on C: (IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS, etc.), but I formated C: to NTFS in order to install Windows XP.
Grub is restored and SuSE, Slackware and Windows XP can boot, but Windows 98 couldn't.
I don't want to use C: in FAT, could I use GRUB to boot Windows 98 from /dev/hda9 (F:), directly?
My Grub file contains these lines for Win98 partition:
title Windows 98SE rootnoverify (hd0,8) makeactive chainloader +1
The following error occurs:
Error 12: Invalid Device Requested (hd0,8)
Is there any chance to maintain Windows 98 bootable on /dev/hda9 (F:)? Do I need the erased files from unit C:? Thanks for any help. adagilson
