Hi, No reloading necessary. This is actually good. Windows always thinks it owns the disk's world, thus overwriting the MBR. Boot floppy, use grub to modify its conf. "man grub" is your key. Thanks.

You should find an option to fiddle with the boot loader for it to give you an option for the dual boot. Sachin ________________________________ From: Billy Davis [mailto:bdavis@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Mon 4/12/2004 11:36 AM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: RH 9 dual boot problem I am trying to set up a dual boot RH 9 workstation. I made the mistake of loading RH 9 first, and then loading Windows XP. Now, Windows ALWAYS boots, and I can only get RH to run by booting from a floppy. When I installed RH, I set GRUB up to allow either Windows or RH to be selected, but Windows must have overwritten the MBR. Is there an easy way to restore the RH boot record back into the MBR, other than reloading RH again?? Thanks BDavis -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
