Ah, that must have been it. My system was happily dual-booting with
BeOS and win98, and it was when I upgraded to XP that the bootloader
ceased to work correctly. Since the partitions never changed I just
assumed the bootloader would still work (then again, you know what you
make when you assume). I think winXP has to have the bootloader on a
windows drive, it kept fussing about not being able to find several
system files.
