missing operating system problem

Hi,

I cannot get the system to boot up after installing fedora core 3. I just get the message "missing operating system"

I have tried to install fedora core 3 (specifically FC3-x86_64) onto a Dell PowerEdge SC1420 SATA (Dual 64-bit Intel Xeon processor 3.2GHz with 1MB L2 cache) 160GB 7200rpm SATA hard drive.

The machine is new. The disk was initially clean (no other OS installed) and in the installation procedure I chose to wipe all partitions. I followed all the defaults during formatting and installation. I don't want a dual boot system. Everything seemed to install smoothly with no warning messages. But it will not boot.

Any ideas gratefully received.

Best wishes,
Mark
