I installed redhat 9 on my second hard disk. Window xp is installed on my first hard disk.

Redhat was installed after xp. Whenever I install grub into the MBR on hda, window xp always

get the unmountable disk volume error. I used fixmbr and window works fine but can't boot

linux. So, i boot linux from the floppy and installed Grub again. Now xp boot up with

unmountable disk volume again. How do make MBR contain working boot info for both

linux and window?

I also had this problem, until I started using Win/XP's boot loader to dual (tri) boot my system. This is a tutorial I used to get Fedora Core 3 added to the Win/XP boot menu, along with WinXP Pro and WinXP Pro-64bit.
