As he mentioned .. hda -> windows drive disconnected hdb -> Linux drive with gentoo Using (hd0,0) with grub is not going to work at all since he's trying to install grub to the disconnected hda1 drive containing windows. He should be using (hd1,0) to install grub to the linux drive on hdb1 Since he's at the grub/lilo stage he's already fdisked and install the whole machine .. so I doubt it will be partition type related Henti Smith
