[lug] DualBoot: Redhat 7.2 and WindowsXP

[Justin]

Has anyone successfully dualbooted this combo of OS's??? I tried to do 
this over the weekend and failed miserably. I installed XP first and 
that went fine. During the partition setup I left a partition for 
linux as well as a swap space. So, after XP was working ok, I booted 
to my 7.2 cd and installed Redhat and chose LILO as the bootloader. 
During the install I had it setup linux as primary boot OS and added 
XP as the secondary. When I booted with the final configuration the 
LILO boot screen came up and showed both "Linux" and "winXP". I booted 
linux first and it worked fine. After messing w/ that for a while I 
decided to make sure my XP install still worked. Well, it didn't work 
at all. I checked my lilo.conf and had:

other=/dev/hda6
label=winXP

I thought that looked right but still my XP wouldn't work. So, anyone 
have any ideas how to approach this? Should I try the GRUB loader?
