I'm trying to boot XP from Vista's bootloader not Vista from XP's
My problem is that XP won't boot after installing Vista (safe mode also doesn't work).
I did the same thing in VMWare (1 primary, 1 logical, shrank primary and installed vista to the new partition) and XP wouldn't even boot after using fixboot/fixmbr .
I believe it is because XP is on a logical partition...

Yep. I've also done this quite a few time and I never had a problem (expect this time
)
