<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I'm trying to dual boot Windows
XP Pro and Red Hat Fedora Core 2. I installed XP on the first partiton, but when
I try to install Fedora on the 2nd partition I get this </FONT><FONT face=Arial
size=2>error: Unable to align partition properly. This probably means another
partition tool generated an incorrect partition table, because it didnt have the
correct BIOS geometry. It is safe to ignore, but ignoring may cuase (fixable)
problems with some boot loaders. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I've searched google and tired
many things including Partition Magic 8 Pro, booted into Knoppix and use cfdisk,
updated BIOS, and used Hard Drive Utility from my hard drive manufacturer
(updated MBR, formated drive with all 0's, I've done every option in MaxBlast
3). Fedora installs fine when I ignore the error, but after it reboots
it freezes when I choose Fedora or XP in the grub selection
menu.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> How can I fix this?</FONT></DIV>
