Hey friends, One of my friend has recently installed FC4 on a Desktop PC on which Windows 2000 was there. Now he is not able to boot to windows and he has very important files on windows.
Always, always, *always* back up important files before doing something like installing another OS ;).
How will he get the option of dual boot means how to edit grub so that he can get the option of dual boot?
Assuming that Windows is still there, it's a simple edit to /etc/grub.conf (edit as root). Something like: title Windows 2000 rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1 Then save, reboot, select Windows 2000 and hopefully it will boot. If Windows happens to be on another drive/partition, adjust (hd0,0) accordingly. See: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/ for more details on GRUB. Jonathan
