Tri booting Grub funnies :(
Partition layout.
2 Sata drives
Primary drive, first partition Windows XP, second partition OSX86
Secondary Drive, first partition xUbuntu, second linux swap.
OSX86 partition has bootable flag
xUbuntu partition has bootable flag
/boot/grub/device.map:
(hd0) /dev/sda
(hd1) /dev/sdb
Linux should be second drive, first partition but I can only boot into it with root (hd0,0)
The part in menu.lst looks like this:
title Ubuntu 8.04.2, kernel 2.6.24-23-generic
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-23-generic root=UUID=0983f9[. . .]
quiet
My windows and OSX86 entries in grub are pointless since they don't work. Booting into the primary drive boots windows. This is odd because the OSX86 partition has the bootable flag! I think I broke chameleon and it's booting windows by default. Trying to boot osx86 with:
title blah blah blah
rootnoverify (hd1,1)
chainloader +1
doesn't work. I figured I'd try hd1,1 since hd0,0 was booting linux. How can I fix this? What can I do to boot into my windows and OSX86 partitions with grub?

Add this code in menu.lst of Ubuntu :
Code:title Windows OS rootnoverify (hd1,0) map (hd0) (hd1) map (hd1) (hd0) chainloader +1 title OSX86 rootnoverify (hd1,1) map (hd0) (hd1) map (hd1) (hd0) chainloader +1It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
