Re: Windoze on a second disk

I have windows installed on a second hard drive and modified /boot/grub/menu.lst to enable me to boot either Fedora or windows. I have not had need to use windows but it's there for test purposes and the spare hard drive is good for saving my files to.

Make sure you have the latest version of grub installed, a couple of previous versions for F11 did not dual boot.

I added this to menu.lst
title Other
    map (hd1) (hd0)
    map (hd0) (hd1)
    rootnoverify (hd1,0)
    chainloader +1
    makeactive
    boot

I need to have Windoze on a system that already has Fedora installed (I
need the Everest diagnostic tool). It seems that the cleanest way to do
this would be to install it on a second HD, and have grub boot it off
of (hd1,0). Is there anything that I should be on the lookout for? --
Other than Windoze itself, of course.

Thanks.
