  I would deeple apperciate your help in answering a question for me... I have mandrake 7.1 on my box in a 8 gig partition and win98 in a 7 gig and winme in a 7 gig all on a 30 gig maxtor ata100 drive,... I also have a win2000 and still one more win based partition. As of now i have the mandrake, the win98se and winme partitions booting... but i cant get the rest as they are windows based and their mountpoints are above the 1024 cylinder boundry... i know that i can use partition magic to make all my drives bootable but i hate the way it works... i would much rather use grub but im not sure if the latest version would help me boot all my partitions or not.... Like i said the mandrake win98se and mill partitions boot through the grub that came w my mandrake 7.1... do u know if the newer versions of grub could make all the partitions bootable or if the latest mandrake comes w a version of grub that can boot all these partitions???
  thx,
