hey all
So for quite a while I've had my MacBook Pro (4,1) setup with a partition for Mac OSX 10.5.8 and XP. I am now getting into using Ubuntu and decided to try a tri-boot using rEFIt. Not really knowing what I was doing, I got Ubuntu setup correctly with its own partition on ext3 with no swap .
Everything seems to work fine on the Mac and Ubuntu partitions (except I cant get the wireless to work in Ubuntu but thats a different question/thread) but now when using rEFIt I try to boot into my XP partition and it hangs on a grey windows logo.
If i've read my tutorial correctly: If XP was installed before the partition change, it will need boot.ini to be edited to change its partition from 3 to 4. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to do that.
Is this what is causing my XP boot to hang? Anyone have this problem? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks
