I have a multi boot system. Started with a 500gb drive with XP. Then loaded Vista. I then added a second 750gb drive and loaded XP64. Everything worked fine, with the system asking if I wanted Vista or legacy windows; if I selected legacy I could choose between XP or XP64.
In preparation of loading debian, I loaded a boot loader named OSL2000. After that I couldnt boot into XP64, and had to use <f12> to select the 500gb drive. If I force the boot off that, then at least I can get into Vista and XP.
I think the OSL boot loader changed the order in which I look for the boot. I used to look at the 500gb drive, now I look at the 750gb drive. I also not the rdisk values are swapped in the boot.ini
I have restored the Vista MBR using repair off the CD. But I still have problems.
I can see in BIOS how to control which devices to boot from (for example, first CDROM, then Floppy, then hard disk). But I don't see how to control which hard disk to boot from first. Is this possible?
