I tried to install Fedora Core 2 Server on one of my computers that also runs W2K3 Server. I installed the Fedora to the 3rd partition on the secondary hard drive, bieng that the primary hard drive is dedicated to the 2K3 OS on the primary partition and backups for my other systems on the second partition. When the installation completed I could access Fedora, which actually looks to be a great OS, but when I rebooted I no longer had access to 2K3. I changed the grub.conf and Menu.lst files to represent the fact that I have Server 2K3 on the first partition of the primary HD (Win 2K3 Server =/dev/hda1). I then rebooted in an effort to get back into Windows, no go. I did a lot of searching on the net for ways to fix the install so it would boot back into Windows, everything I read said that I needed to fixmbr from the recovery CD. I did this, I could no longer access either installation, so I moved all of my important files out of the W2K3 Server partition into the backup partition, formatted and reinstalled 2K3, now I can use the 2K3, but not the Fedora.
CAN SOMEONE PLS HELP ME?
I also tried installing Fedora on one of my other comps and copying the first 512bytes of the partition on to a floppy using the command:
dd if=/dev/hdb3 of=bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1
cat bootsect.lnx> /dev/fd0
but got an incorrect function error on the dd commmand.
PLS HELP ME
