I had three partitions on my computer:
a Windows 2000 partition (ntfs) (hda1)
a Kubuntu partition (ext3) (hda2)
a Kubuntu swap partition (swap) (hda3)
{} (blank) (n/a ) (hda4)
L and a Windows XP partition (ntfs) (hda5)
I Booted into a Kubuntu LiveDVD so that I could use GParted to erase the Windows 2000 partition and use it as a media partition.
I reformatted the win 2000 partion (hda1) into ntfs, but it was set as the active partition. I thought that if I used GParted to set the active partition to the Windows XP one (hda5), then I could boot into windows xp and move over all my media to the now-blank partition.
But when I get into the boot screen and I try to boot into windows I get an error message saying "Some systemfiles are missing, insert a system diskette to continue". Or something to that effect.
I can still boot into Kubuntu just fine, I just want to be able to boot into windows XP.
