Greetings:
I have run into a problem being able to boot to FC4 after installing
it on a dual boot system with Win 2K. The system has 2 IDE hard drives,
a WD 80G (not sure which model #, I'm at work now) setup as master, and
a Maxtor 60G as the slave. Both drives have functioned fine before. The
install goes fine ( no error messages, etc), and indicates that it is
installing grub in the MBR of hda, which is the drive that has win 2k
installed. Install correctly picks up that win 2k is also installed on
the system. However, when I attempt to boot, grub never comes up - it
goes straight to win. If I go into the bios and tell it to boot from
HHD-1 (hdb), it will boot to grub, but then it is unable to launch
either os. It appears that grub is being installed on the second hd
instead of the first, but it thinks it's on the first. If I go back and
run the install again after this as an upgrade, it tells me it can't
find the boot loader and that it is installing grub to the mbr of hda.
But it still doesn't work. I'm looking for ideas on what to do next.
I've jsut joined this list, so sorry if this is discussed elsewhere.
I looked through the archives, but I didn't read all of them!
I would really prefer to get this working with the two drives rather
than having to go back and re-install both on the same HD. But I need to
get them working, so I'll do whatever I need to.
Thanks for any help!
Bill
