duel boot problems win 98 & RH9
Ok I origionally had Win98 installed, I used partition magic to shrink the partition size, tested Windows it worked fine, Installed RH on the free space, using grub for the duel boot. when I get to the selection if I choose Red Hat it boots up fine, but if I choose Windows it starts to load then reboots. Now here is the kicker if I do it again I get the message that windows didn't boot properly last time and gives me the Normal, Safe Mode, etc options, if I go in under Safe Mode I can get in but I can't under any other options. so I'm not sure if it's a grub issue I've posted the grub.conf file here just in case. Now I think the line that says chainloader was added by a co-worker who was trying to fix it. Other than that it should be unaltered.
