Bug#394963: installation: Problems with dual booting Dell D600 with winXP pro in the first partition (hd0, 0). After installing the Dell Etch Beta 3, Windows fails to boot and I get the blue screen of death.



Package: installation
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Installing Etch is killing my windows XP install. I start with a BLANK HDD. Install windows, reboot and windows is fine. Then install Etch and grub writes to the boot partition the relevant info that it need. I now reboot and Debain Etch boot up. Reboot again and choose the windows partition, and within seconds I get the windows BLUE screen.
