Hi,

BTW, you should use the following command:

set ro= ot=3D(hd0,1)
chainloader +1

It's not the same as chainloader (hd0= ,1)+1, as chainloader command
would use the value of root to decide the = boot partition index.

The location 7c00 was good, so the boot record is getting copied corre= ctly.
