Glad you were able to boot. As far as Windows, does running "sudo update-grub" not find and add Windows to the menu? It should be done automatically. If it isn't found by update-grub, you can make an entry in /etc/default/40_custom.
The normal commands in a Grub 2 menuentry would be the following. Replace the X's with the UUID of sda2. You can get the UUID by running "sudo blkid | grep sda2". Insert just the alphanumeric characters in the UUID section.
If you plan on typing this in the Grub command line, you don't have to enter the "search" line - just everything between the { }s:
If you manually add this entry to /etc/grub.d/40_custom, run "sudo update-grub" to get it into the grub.cfg menu.menuentry "Windows XP" {
insmod ntfs
set root=(hd0,2)
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set XXXXXX-XXX-XXXX
chainloader +1
}
If XP won't load, you may need to use the XP CD to help restore Windows. Here is the link:
