Fedora / Windows Boot.

[rowens at mdanderson.org]

I selected load everything and either I missed it or it did not show up. 

I used  the information from 
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?s=&threadid=357963
 and it works perfectly now. 

My question now is "Why can I not connect to the internet."

Thanks guys, 

I feel strange even looking at this software. I have been a Microsoft 
developer since vb3 (1986)  and clipper. I feel there's no problem with 
people charging for their services or what they create.

Research and development has to be paid for by someone or else there would 
be no research, but  times change.  It is nice to get all the major 
software you need without having to pay the $2500 MSDN subscription I pay 
every year.

Just my thoughts

Hi
If both hard drives were connected during the Linux installation it
should have asked you if you wanted to use Grub as the boot loader. 
If you selected this option Grub will ask which hard drive has the
default OS.  If Windows is on the primary hard drive it will show up
hda 0 if not it is hda 1, Fedora should be on the other.  When you get
here all you have to do is put a check mark next to the desired
default OS.  I have selected grub because that is what I use on my
dual boot machine and it works fine with both Windows XP Pro sp2 and
Fedora Core 4. There are others boot loaders floating around that work
just as well if you don't want to use grub.
