I've install Fedora Core 1... and now i have a problem with starting up my PC i can start him only with bootable disk and no partition on my PC is active. The thing is that i have NTFS partition and have a win on one of it, and i can start him (the windows) up, and if there is anythin what i can do to change this mad thing and to choose which one will start it...

Somebody told me that i can fix that with starting up the partition from bootloader but i dont know where can I set my partition active...

 

THanks...

 

CYA...


quick and dirty fix, reinstall fedora, except THIS time choose GRUB as the boot loader, and let it install to the MBR (master boot record)

 

thats the easy fix, that will get rid of the need for a boot discette, and will allow you to boot via a menu to fedora or windows

 

if you dont want to do this post and we'll see what else you can do

 

cheers
