Once I got passed the partition problem and got everything loaded of course there were errors. First when it tried on into gui the screen flashed a few times and error message was cannot open log file var/os/xorg.o/os. Next from the rescue disk I'm trying to mount the floppy drive and copy the linux.bin for duel boot purposes. With no luck. I running an ATI 9200 video card. Can anyone help with these problems.

Finished

what does "finished' mean?

Finished means I've solved all the problems that I was after it's been a long week with Fedora Core 2 and I'll post a new thread with what I've seen and how I worked around the problems and by all means they are not solved Fedora has major problems.

Well let me just say that this has caused HUGE problems in my little home in Australia.

Not only do I no lon ger have a Windows partition, any Linux at all, but a VERY ANNOYED family. I have wiped all my sons photos (18 months worth) yes yes I know didn't you back them. I'm in IT I never said I practice what I preach.

Anyway while I'm still in the sh*t I may as well continue fiddling until I get it going.

Question. I have installed WinXP on partition 1 of my 80GB. I have now installed FC1 with these specs hda5 is a 110mb /boot, hda6 7000mb for /, and hda7 1024mb for swap. I am now going to install FC2 onto the last part of the drive using hda8 for /boot again 110mb and hda9 for / again 7000mb, I will share hda7 for the swap.

Then if all goes well point Grub (from FC1 install) to the newly installed FC2.

What do you think?
