I had the same problem some time before. This is the sequence of actions that helped me to restoer grub: 1. Boot from Fedora CD/DVD in resque mode. Your fedora partition on HDD will be mounted under /mnt/sysimage. 2. Copy all files related to grub (I found them as *grub*) from /mnt/sysimage/sbin to /sbin (because you are loaded from CD) 3. Check file /mnt/sysimage/boot/grub/grub.conf to have correct values for your partitions 4. Execute command /sbin/grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/sysimage 5. Reboot system BR, Fuzzy > On 10/11/06, Knute Johnson <knute@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > >On 10/10/06, Knute Johnson <knute@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:>> I have WinXP installed on the first hard drive and FC5 on the second.>> I was using grub as the boot loader but it was destroyed when I had > >> to reload Winblows.

You need to have the bootloader (Grub) installed on the MBR of boot partition (which would contain /boot)2. Make an image of MBR of this partition. (you could use dd and get the first 512 bytes [bs=512] ) > 3. Copy this image to your win-xp and add an entry for this in boot.ini (if i am right)Now win-xp bootloader would chain-load (?) the linux bootloader. > --Knute JohnsonMolon Labe...--fedora-list mailing listfedora-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx unsubscribe: > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list > -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
