    I'm not sure exactly what your situation is, but I have a multi-boot
    system I just set up recently which boots Windows XP Home or
    Linux Fedora Core 2. I use a Compaq Presario with only one hard disc
    in it.

    I was unable to get GRUB to work installed in the MBR. It could load
    Linux, but not Windows XP. I found that Windows XP has a nice
    boot loader itself, and was able to get it to chain load GRUB, which
    loads Linux.

    Perhaps I can help you. I just joined this mail echo, so I missed
    your earlier message.

    I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
    I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
