[ale] error booting XP after dual boot install of Ubuntu 7.10

[Daniel Howard]

Well, I tried to do my first dual boot install tonite on my dad's Win XP 
machine, and although the GRUB loader works fine and boots into Ubuntu 
just fine, and sees the Win XP and HP Recovery partitions just fine, 
when I select Windows XP to boot to, it reports Disk Error, hit 
CTL-ALT-DEL to reboot.  I can boot into the HP recovery partition, and 
can run the recovery, but it then wipes out the GRUB loader and still 
won't boot into windows.  I reinstalled Ubuntu, and I'm back to square 
one: I can boot Ubuntu and see Windows partitions, but can't boot into XP.

Could my repartitioning of my drive during Ubuntu install have altered 
the hd(0,0) location specified for Windows XP, and hence the GRUB loader 
can't find the location of XP?  How can I find where Ubuntu's 
repartitioner put it and then do I change the boot.ini file in the 
Windows XP partition (seen just fine by Ubuntu) or the menu.lst file of 
the GRUB loader?

TIA,
Daniel
