Actually, it is quite simple. Install windows first, it will write its bootloader into the mbr, then install fcx and it should figure out what to do for dual booting. Somehow you made a mistake. Now you need to recover. First use your windows installation to install the windows bootloader again. Then use the 1st disk of the fedora set to boot into rescue mode and do a grub-install. You can search redhat to find the HOWTO for this. > -----Original Message----- > From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list- > bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Michael Yanowitz > Sent: Tuesday, March 08, 2005 1:14 PM > To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list > Subject: Boot CD and Booting with XP: > > Hello: > > I've got a new PC that came with XP installed.
