OK, well I have a dual boot with Windows happening here as you |
| 12 |
probably can tell. Its all on the one hard drive. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Partition 1 (grub 0)(hda1) = Windows XP (NTFS) |
| 15 |
Partition 2 (grub 1)(hda2) = Gentoo /boot (reiserfs) |
| 16 |
Partition 3 (grub 2)(hda3) = Linux Swap |
| 17 |
Partition 4 (grub 3)(hda4) = Gentoo / (Including /home) (reiserfs) |

Alright, so would I just 'install' it again? This is not an initial |
| 31 |
install of grub, how could it lose its configuration file? |
