Configuring grub to dual boot Fedora 7 and Windows XP

To set up grub to boot Fedora 7 from the master ATA hard drive (hda) and Windows XP Pro from the slave ATA hard drive (hdb) in a computer, I included the following lines at the end of the /boot/grub/grub.conf file:
- title Windows XP Pro
- rootnoverify (hd1,0)
map (hd1) (hd0)
map (hd0) (hd1)
chainloader +1
Pretty easy stuff...that's why when installing both Linux and Windows on a system, I go with a multiple hard drive approach. A lot less bothersome than dealing with partitioning a single disk.
