Grub and XP

[Matty Free]

Sir or Madam,

I don't really have a "bug" to report, but a question that I didn't see 
addressed in your text or FAQs.

I'm having trouble getting a dual boot environment to work on my home 
computer.  I started with attempting a dual partition on one disk, but 
learned that XP isn't so conducive to such things, and I heard rumors that a 
binary patch was released by MS to fix the problem, but never really wanted 
to follow up.  Instead, I took what I thought was the easy way out and 
purchased another disk.

I'm trying to run Red Hat and XP, one on each disk.  XP, for imaginable 
reasons, insists on being on my first disk, 0x80.  With lilo I can modify my 
/etc/lilo.conf file to look like this:

other=/dev/hdb1
    label=dos
    table=/dev/hdb
    map-drive = 0x80
    to = 0x81
    map-drive = 0x81
    to = 0x80

This tricks Windows into thinking it's on the first disk.  I can't seem to 
find out how to do this with GRUB.  Any advice?
