Hi all,
i have win xp in C: and win 2003 in D: I also have redhat FC3
installed. Whenever i boot, i get a menu that shows FC3 and DOS. On
selecting DOS, i get the windows boot loader that
asks me to select between the windows OS.
How can i add windows 2003 as part of the grub menu so that i can boot it
directly without having to pass thro 2 menus?
I don't know how easy this is... It all depends on how XP and 2003 handle
their bootloaders. If they do the "first sector of partition" thing that
Linux distros allow, it'll be easy - just copy the DOS line in grub.conf and
change the partition.
But if they do some internal arrangement by which they use a common
bootloader, you might be stuck with two menus...
I'd suggest that you try the first possibility, and then, if it doesn't work,
look further.
