this can be done.. much easier..
do

#dd if=/dev/[hs]d[abcd] of=grub.bin bs=512 count=1
then copy this to your so called C:\
then add it in boot.ini as C:\grub.bin="Linux"
this is pretty simple that. you can get chainloader option for
even windows bootloaders.. but i see no point having stage2_ntldr
coz anyways it is chainloading. to boot windows.

Ooh, sorry, here we must place one line to c:\boot.ini, something like:

c:\bootgrub="Boot From Grub"

;-)

Here is the method(0.94 and 0.95 tested):

1. copy bootgrub to c:\;

2. REPLACE the beginning of the target STAGE2 file with the stage2_ntldr( 512KB , see attachment's stage2_ntldr);

3. copy the modified stage2 to C:\grldr.

4. Done!
