Ok .. here is my setup:

2 120GB Harddrives on a Promise Controller as HDE and HDG

I have Fedora on HDE and WinXP on HDG

If I do not hide the partitions under HDE I couldn't boot to WinXP (Don't
know why)

The partition that I have on HDG is NTFS, after I did that change it's
working beautifully ...

I don't have any extended partitions on any hard drive all partitions are
primary I have two partitions on HDE
and one partition on HDG.

HDE
/ - ext3 - primary
swap - primary
HDG
ntfs - primary

Let me know if you need anything else :)
Thanks,
