startup option of longhorn is missing?

[lutherfatcat]

Have anyone met this problem?

I have installed XP and Longhorn in my PC, and now the startup option of longhorn is missing? What can I do if I want to renovate this problem.

My boot.ini now is

[boot loader]

timeout=5

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS

[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional (bootscreen)" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /KERNEL=kernel1.exe

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect

What should I add Longhorn startup option into it.

By the way, Longhorn system is on the D driver.

I'll appreciate anyone who reply to my problem no matter available or not?

Don't know what you did or waht went wrong?

So you are saying you can't boot into windows XP at all now? I was reading the read me file saying something about if the hard drive was not "C:" when installing Longhorn, but didn't pay much attention to it.... sorry.

So can you boot into anything or just not Loghorn, did you make a back up copy of your Boot.inf file?

If you can still boot into Windows XP re-install Longhorn.

Here is what my boot.inf file looks like; (keep in mind at the moment I have a quadro OS Boot option)

~~~~~~~~~~~

[boot loader]

timeout=10

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS

[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Blam-O!" /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN /FASTDETECT

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="GaMEr'Z OnLy" /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN /FASTDETECT

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(1)\WINDOWS="LTP 9" /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN /FASTDETECT

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Codename Longhorn 5048" /FASTDETECT

if you don't have access to windows or a stable OS, but have access to a floppy disk and some way of downloading a free utility:

go to http://www.terabyteinc.com and download "EditBINI", it is under the 'Free Software' section.

EditBINI

~~~~~~~

Use this DOS based utility to edit the \BOOT.INI file on an NTFS partition.

This program will run under DOS or Win9x/ME. It will not run correctly under

Windows NT,2K,XP.

hope that helps..
