Obviously the installer ran and that tells you that the 32 bit OS works. I would suspect that have a grub issue with the install (i.e. - not installing grub on /dev/sda) Suggest that you do... boot installation disk again enter 'linux rescue' at boot have it locate the installation for you and get to a command prompt type 'chroot /mnt/sysimage' type 'grub-install /dev/sda' type 'exit' type 'exit' remove the installation CD and reboot Craig -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
