Mandriva Grub problem

[jesse]

Good evening,

I just installed a second hard drive with Windows XP. But the GRUB loader with mandriva 2009.1, while offering the choice of booting doesn't gives choice for Windows. It is not included in grup.What to do? or rather what's wrong? Thank you for your help.

Best regards

You need a console launch since you put your linux as root or use sudo .

The small detail is that to do your manipulation you need to know on which disk is your boot partition.

You can do a df-h in a console to show me how to configure your disks?

Hi, here is:

Sys. de fich. Tail. Occ. Disp. %Occ. Mounted on
/dev/sda1 5,8G 3,6G 2,0G 65% /
/dev/sda6 69G 57G 12G 84% /home
/dev/sdb1 19G 4,4G 15G 24% /mnt/windows
none 505M 8,0K 505M 1% /tmp

Then try the following command:

# grub-install /dev/sda
