Red hat 9 to FC3

redhatbadboi · 02-06-2005, 03:34 PM

I've just downloaded the new Fedora Core 3 and burned it, it boots on my second desktop which is Windows XP.

But with my 2nd desktop which only has Red Hat 9, I rebooted with the cd still in the cd-rom tray but it doesn't boot from cd, i've checked bios to check for the cd-rom boot enabled, which it is. But when I try to boot from cd after rebooting it just boots the Red Hat 9 in GRUB. How can I install FC3?!?!?

Maybe you may want to create a boot floppy. I am sure the instructions are available from the Fedora website or the download mirrors.
