Problem installing fedora with suse 10.2 already installed


Hi
I have installed SuSE 10.2 on my compaq presario in 30 GB(Total disk space is 60 GB).
Now i want to install Fedora Core 5 and make it dual boot.But when i boot from 1st fedora CD it says "No hard disk found......."
What i need is either SuSE+Fedora or Win XP+Fedora (2nd option is much batter i suppose).

Please Suggest.
Thanks a lot

I have WinXp, Fedora Core 6, and Suse 10.2 on my laptop but found it depends on the distrib and the laptop as to what boot parameters you have to pass. I was lucky to find info for my laptop about both distributions. They were different and worked. Don't know if I could have used the same parameters for one or the other.

Anyways, did you search for your specific laptop and the distribution?

Hopefully you haven't given up....

Good luck,
Rick
