Re: Cannot Chain Load Grub From Windows Boot Loader

[Paul Galbraith]

Thanks to everyone who pointed out that grub was looking for stage 2 on 
the same drive that it booted from.  This was the problem.  I ended up 
temporarily installing grub to the MBR of my windows partition and 
saving that boot sector as bootsect.deb, and then replaced the MBR with 
the windows boot sector.

Things are working nicely now, thanks!
