markwolfe Veteran Posted February 23, 2005 Veteran Share Posted February 23, 2005 Your third screenie shows Windows to boot off of /dev/null which is about as close as literally nothing as there is in Linux. The best thing to do is to edit your grub.conf file to have the following: title WinXP-hda1 root (hd0,0) chainloader +1 You might be able to do it through SUSE's GUI, but I don't know exact steps...
