Hello, I recently installed Gentoo, and I am having trouble getting Grub 
to congfigure correctly.

I have windows XP on what I think to be (hd0,0) or the primary hard disk
Gentoo is on (hd1,0) or the secondary hard disk.

I think the trouble has to do with my spaces in the grub.conf file.

I wrote :
default 0
timeout 30
splashimage=(hd1,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz

title=Windows XP Home
root (hd0,0)
chainloader (hd0,0)+!

title=Gentoo Linux
root (hd1,0)
kernel (hd1,0)/boot/kernel-2.4.20-gentoo-r7 root=/dev/hdd3
initrd (hd1.0)/boot/kernel-2.4.20-gentoo-r7


But, alas it complains about a complete filename or block.  I am not 
sure as to the exact meanings of the two numbers after the disk designation.

my disks are on the second ide cable, so they show up as hdc and hdd.

thanks. 

Ivan
