  1. Re:Don't install yet on Fedora Core 2 Review · · Score: 1

    Sorry, last post was not formatted correctly. It should have read:

    ----------

    I've had this problem in the past. Boot using your WindowsXP CD, go into the repair console and type:

    fixboot c:
    fixmbr

    fixboot writes a new partition boot sector to the system partition and fixmbr writes or repairs the master boot record for WindowsXP. You system should start to WindowsXP upon reboot.

    It has worked for me everytime.

    Cheers!

    I must be the exception to the rule. I installed FC2 on the freespace of my drive with XP on the first partion and everything came out fine. I did have my fingers crossed when I restarted though. :)
