Hi,
It looks like u installed Grub on /dev/hda1 which is same as the partition
on which ur windows is installed, probably overwrote the windows partition.
MBR would have been /dev/hda.
/dev/hda1 is first partition on first IDE drive
Regards,
Sanjay
Abt recovering: no idea, maybe u have to reinstall windows. then use linux
boot floppy to boot and re-install grub on MBR (dev/hda)

Hey ppl,
I installed grub on my hard disk.I then installed
Windows on /dev/hda1.Everything is fine still now.I
selected the wrong command from history
--------[grub-install /dev/hda1].My Linux boots well
but my windows seems not to boot at all.When I
inserted my boot floppy(Windows)and tried to enter C:\ it says wrong
filesystem tpye.I also tried commands
from grub suchas rootnoverify (hd0,0) and chinloader
+1 and boot (in the same sequence).Please say to me a
solution to enter into Windows98.Thanks in advance.
Arjun
