Dual boot FC2T2 and WinXP?

[Vincent]

I'm new to the list and can't reply to the thread, sorry if this
top-posts.

My setup came across the same problem as most here noted. FC2-t2
chewed up my win XP. First I tried fooling around with grub's parameters
like hd0,0) then did grub-install /dev/hda neither
worked. Long story short, I tried everything mentioned in this 
thread and I can not get XP back, I tried booting from windows 
CD and it just hangs after "detecting hardware".

At this point I'm not concerned with FC2 it holds no valueable
data. I've thought of re-installing FC 1 but if that screws up I'm
out of options, can't even burn my old data. So does anyone know
of a way I can make a windows bootdisk from within linux? I need
to recover somehow. (the bootdisks i seen on the net are .exe's)

A few notes I didn't see mentioned. during install i was warned of
this but the dialog said it can be fixed after installation so i
assumed it refferd to 'grub-install' and clicked OK, anyone else
get that popup?

LBA some noted was a workaround, but my bios only has two options
"auto" and "disabled" auto has always been on so scratch that.
