I disk cloned to another hard disk 320GB SATA HDD using Clonezilla(Disk to Disk Method) Now in 320GB hard disk Fedora Linux working fine. But Windows XP wont boot. when enter Windows XP in GRUB menu the system wont boot. So I used fixboot and fixmbr using windows xp repair mode But windows XP not boot. What is the mistake.

Sir,
thanks for your reply. Actually i used disk to disk option(entire disk). Grub loaded successfully and also fedora 17 working fine. But I enter windows xp in grub menu the system display blinking cursor. |
you are aware that fedora 17 is dead and unsupported
and so is fedora 18 only fedora 19 and the current fedora 20 are supported please install fedora 20 you really DO need to stay current |
You cloned sda to sdb windows maybe thinking the drive is sda & fedora is looking for windows on sdb. Windows most likely (Hd0,1) & is now (Hd1,1)
This is my theory. Check your fstab & windows drive entry, it may be as simple as changing drive # in grub or drve mapping |
i there,

But yes, if the OP left both HDDs connected at the same time, that may be an issue. [X] Doc CPU |
