I get the feeling dual-boot systems are a /dirty /subject round here but<br>needs must I'm afraid. Right, I'm having issues loading Fedora Core 5. I<br>have 2 hard-drives:<br><br>80GB (we'll call this /D1/)<br>100GB (we'll call this /D2/)
<br><br>I started by installing WinXP on /D1/. Then I installed Fedora on /D2,<br>/using GRUB on the MBR of /D1/. This didn't work. My system just booted<br>straight into XP. Then I tried the same but installed GRUB on the first
<br>sector of /D2/. Same result. Now I've just tried the same install but<br>*without *installing GRUB and tried Acronis OS Selector instead. This<br>wouldn't event detect the existence of Fedora. I'm a complete noob when
<br>it comes to Linux (Well, partial noob really. Read a few books) so<br>please explain what I'm doing wrong in moderately simple terms.</blockquote><div><br><br> hello,<br><br>try this to solve your problems with grub:<br>
