 It wasn't getting that far.

 Booting at the same time isn't a problem, but s2895 needs some ACPI help
 before Windows will boot.  SeaBIOS will find Grub and it will just work
 for you once Windows boots on s2895.

 Try it again and when you do make configure, select Payload
 Configuration->Enable LZMA Compression.  That's the way I tried it.  ACPI
 works well enough for Ubuntu...

 Thanks,
 Myles
