Hi !

Thanks for the answer Barry Yu, but it's my fault that I didn't specify more clearly what I meant.

I am not using Grub or Lilo as a bootloader because I don't want to mess up my MBR in Windows98, i like to have win98 as first boot.
I want to use Loadlin, to load the Fedorakernel into memory from Win98-DOS.
I have done what I suppose to do, according to the Loadlin+Win95/98ME mini-HOWTO(http://www.eskimo.com/~praxis/)
But it doesn't work properly when I Boot Fedora from Win98-DOS.
Here is a sample of my bootmessage that I get when I boot with loadlin from win98 to Fedora :

NET: Registered protocol family 17
md: Autodetecting RAID arrays.
md: autorun ...
md:  ...autorun DONE.
EXT2-fs: hda3: Couldn't mount because of unsupported optional features (4).
Kernel panic - not syncing : VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (3,3).

Then the system go into halt and I have to push my RESET-button to reboot my system back to win98.


So, what to do ? I need help .........

Is there anyone out there, that starts FedoraCore3 with Loadlin in Windows98, that can help me to configure my system properly ?

Thanks all.

Install w98 first in a f32 partition, and then secondly install the fc3, the fc3 will auto dectect the existing w98, during insatllation of fc3 at configuartion of boot loader, just take whatever the default setting, when finished, the grub will be the boot up manual for you to select which O/S you want to boot up with (w98 or fc3). Hope I understood your post correctly.
