Re: Config Boot loader



This is the section from my /boot/grub/menu.lst file that refers to
Windows XP. Hope it helps. My system is just two hard drives hda1 &
sda1, for Ubuntu and XP respectively.
Hope it helps.

XP is not in the list because I installed XP via a Ghost backup.
Please tell me how to config the bootloader in Ubuntu.

Ubuntu is located at /dev/hda3
XP is located at /dev/hda5
