Add Windows 7 to Mageia Linux boot loader

I found a simple way in the net that can easily add windows 7 to Mageia boot loader.
I have two harddisk. One with Mageia and the pther with Windows 7.
I just ad the the following to /boot/grub/menu.lst

title windows 7
root (hd1,0)
chainloader +1

After reboot I can select Windows 7 from the boot menu.

P/S From my new installed Mageia 2. I found that the brub boot setting for windows 7 is as follow:

title windows
root (hd1,0)
map (0x81) (0x80)
map (0x80) (0x81)
makeactive
chainloader +1
