Title:
  Ubuntu 8.10-Desktop-AMD64 GRUB does not permit use of Windows XP
  Recovery Drive

Status in grub package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I just installed Ubuntu 8.10 AMD64 alongside Windows XP. I then had
  problems with XP concerning a possible rootkit. Bothunter 1.0.2
  determined a malware existed. I then attempted to recover C drive by
  using D drive which contains HP_Recovery (HP Pavilion a1228x). GRUB
  does not allow for recovery through D drive. I had to format and
  reinstall Windows XP via CDs. XP is running again of course but I did
  not reinstall Ubuntu until I am sure I can use D drive later on.

  Also, I did set XP as default on reboot instead of Intrepid Ibex.
