As I stated already, those were not the original pages I found and used 
as a guide to getting Linux up and running on my machine. I found those 
in under two minutes to respond to your original response. I don't know 
the reasoning, perhaps it's NTFS on my WinXP partition, but it is being 
very finicky when it comes to the MBR, and I don't have the Windows 
skills to fix a problem there. The reason I'm wondering if a kernel 
update might have triggered my problem is because the fedoraproject.org 
page I referenced specifically states "you must reconfigure your primary 
boot loader whenever you install and boot from a new kernel." Naturally 
I'm no expert, but that seems a reasonable conclusion.

See my last email (sent minutes ago), and answers will be provided later 
today.
