I reinstalled FC4 thinking to do a clean text based install and to try to solve yum problem and report anything here. I already have debian installed with WinXP as dual boot. I installed fedora but did not let it install grub when asked. When I got the normal grub menu after install, I manually put in the parameters for root, kernel and initrd to boot in to FC4 and it booted fine. Booting debian also works fine but now when booting XP, it gives an error saying HAL.dll is corrupted and to resinstall the OS. Now what did fedora change to make this happen? Is there a solution to this? I just had reinstalled XP a few days ago and don't want to go in to reinstalling everything again. Regards, Deboo -- Please don't Cc: me, I'm subscribed to the list.
