I have been trying to set up a dual boot between WinXP and FC2. I have added a hard drive for linux that is on a different IDE controller than my other drives. When I tried to install FC2, I got an error message saying that it could not mount /dev/hde2 as / because it is not formatted. I am using all the right settings and telling disk druid to create and format the partitions on the new drive. Everything looks ok until it starts to copy files, when I get the error. Furthermore, my XP installation will not boot. I get an error message that is from the bootloader in the MBR. My partitions are intact, but something is amiss. I have been telling anaconda to load GRUB on the first sector of the boot partition, not any MBR. How is the FC2 install even writing a single byte to my XP hard drive?
