Thank you to everyone that responded. I was mostly looking for a little more confidence in the whole situation. The following link looks to be the information I was missing. http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2004-May/msg00908.html Main problem was that I had a windows XP fedora1 box running great for months. I istalled FC2, it ran for about a week, then FC2 crashed with disk write errors. I rebooted to find that neither windows, nor FC2 would run. Well after several hundred re-installs, formats, fdisks, maxblast3 programs and a new hard drive that experienced just as many problems, I'd lost all confidence in the situation. I will continue to work with this new bit of information. Gotta love linux users. If anyone ever needed a friend in the computer world, linux users are there.
