Hello:
I've got a new PC that came with XP installed. I
added Red Hat Fedora. I have not been able to boot
into Linux. The first time, I tried, I overwrote the MBR
and couldn't boot into either. The computer does not
have a floppy drive, but I can boot off of a CD.
So my questions are thus:
1) How do I create a boot CD? (Do the instructions for
a boot floppy appy to CDs)?
2) I tried to update GRUB to boot off of something other
than the MBR but it wouldn't let me save the configuration
unless I changed the kernel. So how can I update GRUB to boot both XP and
Linux? Any advice:
D: Primary FAT32 3.5GB
C: Primary NTFS 48.8GB
* Primary Linux Ext3 103MB
* Extended
* Logical Linux Ext3 21.1GB
* Logical Linux Swap 988MB
3) What is the best way to set this up for dual boot?
Thanks in advance
