Funny problem here, tried to install a windows xp partition on a ubuntu 10.10 machine using gparted, and it booted to windows fine, but when I tried to get into ubuntu by setting the sda1 to the boot partition I get Operating system not found. Thought I might attempt to roll back changes by deleting windows partition and merging it back into sda1.. same error still.

At this point I would really like to get back to booting into my Linux partition. If there is a way to set up a windows xp partition as well with a dual boot menu, this would be fantastic.
