Do you have GRUB on Mandrake? LILO would work but I'm not sure of the
configuration.
Boot your Mandrake system and insert your Fedora Core 1 disk 1. From
disk 1 copy images/pxeboot/initrd.img to /boot/initrd-fedora.img and
copy images/pxeboot/vmlinuz to /boot/vmlinuz-fedora
Then create a new grub entry something like this (hd0,0 is my /boot
partition):
title Fedora Installer
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-fedora
initrd /initrd-fedora.img
Now reboot and select the "Fedora Installer" entry. After the keyboard
and language setup it will ask for an installation method: cdrom, nfs,
ftp, etc.
