I have 2 hard drives,
hda-Primary 700MB
hdb-slave 40GB

I tried to install Linux in my computer as following steps
I already Installed winXp in my slave harddisk 40GB
hda1-100MB-/Boot for boot loader
hda2-256MB swap as swap partition
hdb5-4000MB / in slave hardDisk

I put the "/" in the slave 40GB harddisk(becouse no more space in hda)

RedHat Linux is booting well,but winXp in not booting
I used grub bootloader and Lilo also.

please answer to this question
