I am trying to dual boot Linux and WinXP on two SEPARATE harddrives. Linux is on the primary master, and XP on the primary slave. When I choose Windows from the LILO bootscreen I get an 0x07 error. Anyone got any tips on getting this to work?? I have already tried mapping the drives: drive-map=0x80 to 0x81 drive-map=0x81 to 0x80 in the lilo.conf but this did not help. Any other suggestions??
