Problems with GRUB and d-i Beta 4

[Nightfall]

I have installed Debian Sarge with debian-installer Beta 4.
I knew about the following problem:
"Windows OS not detected. The installer may fail to detect existing
installations of Windows, if Windows uses an NTFS filesystem. It will not be
added to the grub boot menu. (This problem is fixed in the daily builds.)"
but I have installed anyway, thinking I could simply add

title Windows XP
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1

in /boot/grub/menu.lst after the installation.
Alas, this does not work for me: if I try to boot Win, I get this message:

Booting "Windows XP"

rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1

and nothing else...

Can you help me pleaaaase?

A couple of questions:

1. What kernel version does this version of Debian use? Is it a 2.6 kernel?
2. You sure that Windows is on the first partition?
3. If you go to the GRUB command line (press "c" while GRUB displays its menu) and start typing "root (hd0," and then press Tab, what output do you get?

Sure.

Oh, the answer to question one made it easier (or at least so I hope =) ).

Try entering your BIOS setup, and set the access method for your hard drive to LBA. That should probably make Windows work.

It does NOT.
I'm bored. I'll download a daily build. I hope this bug is no more...

Thanx of all!
