I have to make some assumptions, but try this: 1) boot into rescue mode and find your RC2 and follow instructions to chroot into it. 2) grub-install /dev/sda (This is where I assume your windows partitions are. If not, then grub-install /dev/sd<whatever drive windows thinks has the MBR) 3) reboot and grub should come up with the grub menu You may have to use the windows install disk to recreate the windows boot manager and then you will have to repeat 1-3 again. Once done you can mod grub.conf to add: rootnoverify (hd<where the windows boot manager is) then next line chainloader +1 in order to boot windows from the grub menu. The above is the way I have done it many times. I do not use EFI. Good luck. -- Regards, OldFart -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
