I installed fedora on an Intel PC. At
the end of the installation, when prompted
to make a boot disk, I received an error
indicating that the install system was
unable to create sucha disk because the
number of modules required to boot the machine made it impossible to fit the
boot files on the 1.44Mb floppy.
How does one make a boot floppy in such cases?
How do I boot into my system now if there
is a problem with the MBR?
Thank you for any input.
You are still able to boot into rescue mode from CDrom (At prompt 'linux rescue' There are plenty of tools available to help recover a lost MBR, and other incidents..
The rescue mode can also chroot to your existing installation on harddrive - it makes this very easy, with instructions displayed after it detects the installation.
