And then you can fix the problem at your leisure; instead of being left with a non-booting system until you have time to boot with a seperate recovery cd/disk and fix Lilo.grub> root (hd0,0)

Yes, if I'm understanding you, you are correct.Originally posted by Kriegführung
so if I installed grub, the root partition (hd1,2) correct and boot would be (hd1,0)?
I usually avoid installing to the MBR since some things can mess up if you over-write the MBR (for instance, HPT RAID controllers don't like this). I usually write it to the active partition (in my case "(hd0,0)"). But I don't run Windows anymore, so I don't know if this plays well with windows or not. However, if LILO is working fine installed on the MBR then you won't run into any problems installing grub on the MBR.Then i would do a root (hd1,2) and setup (hd0) to set it up on the Windows XP drive since that is where my MBR is?
Also, I noticed in the loader example in the install for Grub on Gentoo they had a parameter under the Windows XP boot called chainloader (hd0,5)+1. What the hell is that?
