   Maybe the entry is wrong. I have been looking again at how my laptop   
   boots a Windows entry. If it fails, replace the "chainloader +1" line   
   with this:   
      
           parttool ${root} hidden-   
           drivemap -s (hd0) ${root}   
           chainloader +1

   Cheers, Carlos.
