All,
Linux came to my rescue before when I had a Winblows prob, but this time I'm stuck.
Got a dual-boot (Windows and Linux), with one HD but several partitions. All data is on separate partitions except the wife's email stuff - mistake!
Anyway I can't boot into Windows on hda1, getting the following error from Grub :
Error 25 : Disk read error
Press any key to continue
When any key is pressed, I can choose a Linux partition and all works as it should. The grub manual tells me that : A disk read error happened while trying to read the stage2 or stage1.5. But doens't say how this can be fixed.
I also tried mounting the Windows partition (FAT32) in Linux with no luck.
Help before the wife does something drastic!
Rgs,
Matt
