Hey, i have vista and opensuse on a computer (Seperate drives).
I want to be able to boot into opensuse and load vista on a virtual machine but i cant because i get a grub error. My linux is installed on sdb1 and vista is on sda1 so im guessing grub doesnt load because linux is in use, and ive heard that the ntldr isnt good for linux/windows dual boot. So what should i do to get vmware able to load vista? is it possibe to switch the hard drives or something?
Thanks
Matt

If you can elaborate on the grub error that would be helpful. ntldr can work with linux/windows dual boot, except it is slightly more difficult to setup than grub.

If you can also provide your default OS entry from your grub.conf that would help in troubleshooting the error message.

Well my system boots fine normally but it gets error 22 under vmware.
