Any suggestion??? Shall I have to clean MBR and re-install Grub?? Grub.conf seems not to be corrupted.

Instead of the rootnoverify option directly, you might want to add this sample config entry from "info grub"


  # For booting Windows NT or Windows95
     title Windows NT / Windows 95 boot menu
     root        (hd0,0)
     makeactive
     chainloader +1


This worked for me with XP as the primary drive and with Linux as the secondary drive.


I wouldn't reinstall grub, just edit the entry in the grub.conf file.
