Seems I'm not the only one with the problem. I've installed Fedora Core 5 from the DVD just like the rest of you only to find that it wouldnt boot to Grub or Linux, only to Windows.
After reading through a few forums I tried using Linux rescue. After trying different approaches from different forums it appears that despite the fact that I ticked install grub to hda, it has installed it on hd1,0.
I have reinstall Fedora and grub from my DVD several times with the same result.
The computer I am trying to install on has 2 40gB hard drives, hda has windows xp and one day hdb will have FC5. The motherboard is an Asrock K7S41GX. I built the system from bits as my play thing so as not to mess up my work machine. I am however sick of installing windows and linux.
In the last 3 months I've tried Debian, FC4 and now FC5 and not been able to get one of them to work successfully. Surely linux cant be that hard?
Any assistance gratefully accepted.
Thanks
