Fedora Installation :: 10 - WDE And Dual-Boot - Boot Sector Is Occupied By WDE Software (TrueCrypt)
May 17, 2009I currently have XP installed on a NetBook (Samsung NC10), and would like to run Fedora on it. I'm currently looking at putting Fedora onto a flash memory card to test it works OK on the hardware, before installing it to the hard disk. The problem I've got is that the boot sector is occupied by WDE software (TrueCrypt). Will this pose a problem for dual-booting XP with Fedora, or will GRUB move the boot loader in the usual way?

Jan 10, 2010I just set up a dual boot on a system with fedora 12 and XP. XP in on one hard drive (sda) and Fedora on a second hard drive (sdb).
I installed grub on the Fedora disk so as to not touch the windows disk at all.
Prior to installation, in the bios, I set the Fedora disk (sdb) first in the boot sequence, and then XP (sda) so that the grub loader would boot up by default. (If I set the windows drive first then the system bypasses grub and loads straight into windows.)
My system can now boot up into Fedora fine, but if I select windows from the grub loader menu I just get a blinking cursor - windows will not boot.What do I have to do so that grub can boot into XP?
Fedora Installation :: Can't Dual Boot XP And F10
Feb 6, 2009I've been wrestling with this for the last couple of days - I can't dual boot XP and F10.
[code]...
I did notice when installing F10 that it remapped my drives, making the WIndows and therefore boot drive /dev/sdb and the Linux Drive /dev/sda. I know this requires changing some of the drive designations (hd0,0 etc) but I've done it twice and ended up only being able to boot into Windows.
Ubuntu Installation :: Window7 Not Displayed In Booting OS List?

The same ubuntu i have installed earlier within windows Xp. but in windows 7 it produce issue like this.

View 14 Replies View RelatedFedora Installation :: Dual Boot F10 With Vista
May 6, 2009I have a PC with two 40 Gb hard drives. Vista is currently installed on drive 0. Nothing is installed on drive 1. If I switch cables to the drives, Vista will be installed on drive 1. Nothing will be installed on drive 0. If I then install Fedora 10 on drive 0, will it automatically detect Vista on drive 1 and allow me the option of using Grub or something else to boot it? I want to avoid having Vista overwrite my MBR, but I don't want to piss my wife off because she can't access windows for two weeks while I figure out how to customize Grub or install something else. If I need to customize Grub, (or some other boot loader), I would need step by step instructions. Is there a book or online tutorial?

Aug 25, 2009I have managed to reduce the default LVM F8 install to make room for F10... See Bare metal backup:

And shrink the partition:
[URL]
I now have about 50G free on a 80G drive. The F8 system has a small /boot and an LVM partition that includes swap. What I want to do is install F10 WITHOUT LVM on the free space. Access to the F8 LVM drive would be a plus but not complete necessary. I just want to keep the F8 system as is until I get set up with everything under f10, which may be a bit. I am not sure what to enter for mount points for the custom drive layout. I need a small swap partition (I don't want to use F8 swap because it will be going away in the future, for example when I install F12 and have dual boot F10/F12 system. What should I have as primary partitions and which as secondary?
How do I set up the boot? Grub?

I boot into F12 fine, I also get menu to boot Other but when I choose this option instead of going into XP I get error 22 no partition? I can swap the drives around & boot into windows fine. I know I must not be pointing or having F12 pointing to the correct partition for XP.

Dec 27, 2009I am a relative newbie to Fedora 12, altho did start with OpenSuse. I installed XP first with the games that couldn't run via wine. Then I installed Fedora but I must've done something wrong as although Fedora runs fine with a few personal tweaks with everything I want I can't access XP as it is no longer an option in the boot up. What do you suggest I do. I have a system rescue cd ready but don't know how to access the boot or change it.

May 20, 2010I have pc containing 80 GB Hard Disc with 1 GB RAM. I am using 60 GB for windows and 20 Gb for Fedora 12. Recently i formatted the pc and reinstalled both. I installed windows 7 instead of Windows XP i am using earlier. Now i do not like windows 7. My system became very slow. perhaps as my pc is five years old and motherbord configuration may not be matching. Now i want to revert to windows XP. I do not know any method by which i can retain fedora 12 and change from windows 7 to XP. Earlier i formatted complete hard disc and installed fedora 12 (myself) after windows 7 (by professional). but now i do not want to reinstall fedora 12. It will lose all upgradation and installed packages.

May 20, 2010I just bought a new laptop with the Intel I3 processer in it and it came with Windows 7 preloaded. I am running Ubuntu 9.10 32 bit on my old system but decided to use this opportunity to upgrade to a 64 bit OS and Fedora seemed to be a good choice. Anyways, the problem I'm having is that I am trying to run dual-boot with 7 and Fedora. I got it installed and from the grub menu, I can load both OS?s. I can boot 7 just fine but for some reason Fedora will not finish loading. It will start loading, run though several scripts and then the screen goes black like its trying to go to a splash screen but that were it stops. I tried the rescue option on the boot DVD and it pretty much did the same thing.

View 14 Replies View RelatedFedora Installation :: Dual Boot With MBR On First Drive With XP And F14 On Other
Dec 5, 2010I am not smart enough to figure out how to install Fedora 14 correctly. I have an older computer with 2 20gb drives. On the first drive (sda) I have Windows XP, and on the 2nd drive (sdb) I am trying to install Fedora 14. The catch is that I would like to put Grub and the MBR on the first drive so that when the computer boots, it asks whether to load Windows XP or Fedora. I know I have done it with Fedora 13 in the past, but have forgotten how to do it. How to accomplish this in Anaconda for Fedora 14?
