Hi,

I have the Ubuntu Netbook Remix, Windows XP and Windows 7 on my Dell mini 10. When I start the computer, it goes to GRUB, and has the option for Ubuntu and Windows 7, not XP. When I choose windows 7 I goes to its own boot loader and the has windows xp after it with it's boot loader. So basically I have to go to 3 boot loaders for windows xp to start. What I would like to do is have them all on grub and as I click on one it starts booting that OS instead of taking me to another boot loader.

I have done something like this on my other laptop with windows 2000 and ubuntu 9.04, but i don't remember how to do it, i know there is a menu.lst file i have to edit.

So can some one help me out with this?

Thanks so much in advance!

PS. i know this is in the general forum but I found this forum after so i did a copy/ paste and put it into the right area.
