hi Chris, Thanks. But when I tried to re-install FC4, any idea why it is giving space problem? I am giving him entire hard-disk for the installation. Thanks n regards Sadashiv. -----Original Message----- From: Chris Ruprecht [mailto:chris@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, July 04, 2005 8:42 AM To: Chopdekar, Sadashiv Subject: Re: reinstallation FC4 problem Start from a DOS disk (or Win98 CD in DOS mode). run fdisk /mbr This will do something and exit (no fdisk menu will come up!). reboot and you're fine - then from your description, looks like you have to re-install something (FC4 or Windows) as you seem to have no OS at all.

It downloaded number of packages and while upgrading gnome, it failed and error out. I was not given any option and the system went down. When I started my machine, it started all the services but was not able to start GNOME panel. Taking this as an opportunity to install Windows, I install windows by formatting entire disk. Installation went well but when I booted, my system it displayed me "GRUB". nothing happens after that. > Then I re-install FC4 giving him entire hard disk.
