Still no success with boot to NT on hda2

[Uwe Dippel]

This is the follow-up to an earlier thread:

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/hda: 16 heads, 63 sectors, 77545 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 bytes

The hidden stuff and hda2 have been added in the meantime on the
comment that NT might not boot from the logical drive hda10.
This is why I put it forward to hda2.

When I now issue the usual commands:
rootnoverify (hd0,1)
makeactive (though it is !)
chainloader +1
boot

it comes up with 
Disk I/O error: Status = 00000001
and I have to turn off the power.

If I do, however, boot nicely to hda1 (or hda3) - Linux /boot - the
disk boots up very properly. So it can't be a disk error.
Then I can also nicely
mount -t vfat /dev/hda2 /mnt/whatsoever
and /mnt/whatsoever will show me the files necessary for the NT boot
process: ntldr, boot.ini, ntdetect plus the rest of C:

So it seems nothing is missing, anything mounts but hda2 doesn't boot.

Any more ideas ?
