RedHat 7.3 on system with 2000 Pro

Good evening all,

I had Win2K Pro running on my drive that is partitioned into 2. It ran fine. I decided to dabble in a bit of Linux to learn and loaded RedHat 7.3 on the other partition. I chose the Grub boot loader but now when the boot loader comes up it does not give me a choice to boot into Win2K.

Someone please help

Thanks for any advice in advance

If it's grub that is coming up, then the answer is simple. Boot into Red Hat and edit /boot/grub/grub.conf. Assuming Red Hat is installed on the second partition and Windows 2000 is on the first, then add this:

title=Windows 2000
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1

Save that and reboot. That should do the trick.
