So, just to be certain that I understand this correctly: 1. the ubuntu-installed grub is what is run when you boot your system. This does not work? 2. You can access the installed fedora system. I assume you are using a rescue disc for this? if so, you can put (the first stage of) GRUB back on the MBR from within fedora, which will then use your fedora grub.conf file * boot with your rescue disc. Let it mount all your partitions * chroot /mnt/sysimage * grub-install /dev/hda (/dev/sda if you have a SATA harddrive.) * exit * exit your system should reboot at this point. Hopefully showing the default fedora grub screen. Kind Regards, Stuart -- Stuart Sears RHCA RHCSS RHCX STFU PDQ RIAA MP3
