Description dante bly 2005-08-10 16:55:44 UTC
I installed Suse 10.0 beta1 over a Suse 9.3 installation in a dual boot system.
However, when I try to boot into Windows XP, I get the following error:

chainloader(hd0,2)/dev/hda1

Error 2: Bad file or directory
Press any key to continue

Suse 9.3 worked fine in a dual boot situation. I am using a regular maxtor IDE
hard drive. I can still access the contents of the Windows XP partition when I
log into Suse linux.
