Thanks :-)

Mmm... I see.

GRUB is giving priority to your IDE disk so maybe your BIOS is also 
priorizing IDE controller instead SCSI.

In this setup you may need using the "map" or "hide" option for booting 
windows which is detected in secondary hard disk:

Scroll down to "Windows in other place not in hda1" and test with all 
that samples (or even a combo of the two), i.e.:


title		Microsoft Windows 98 (test 1)
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
root		(hd1,0)
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader	+1
