Is that valid, Flatline? I've only seen 'map' used with the entire drive:

Code:

map &#40;hd0&#41; &#40;hd1&#41;
map &#40;hd1&#41; &#40;hd0&#41;

I think so, but this is from memory and a lot of tequila has attacked my neurons over the years. It's been a long time since I had to use that parameter.

This is what I would try:

Code:

map &#40;hd1&#41; &#40;hd0&#41;
map &#40;hd0&#41; &#40;hd1&#41;
rootnoverify &#40;hd1,0&#41;
makeactive
chainloader +1
boot

It worked once before:http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/pos...15.html#201515
