You should do the map-drive thing for your windows stanza.
So:

other=/dev/hdd1
        label=Windows
        table=/dev/hdd
        map-drive = 0x80
                to = 0x81
        map-drive = 0x81
                to = 0x80

That's how my stanza is setup.

Now, single HD with multiple OS partitions...never tried,
but you wouldn't have to map-drive since that is just switching
the boot drive. I guess, both Linux and Windows likes to have
their boot drive as drive 1 (0x80).
