I have Vista on the first disk drive. I use the second drive for Fedora. The automated update destroyed my Fedora 10 installation while trying to update to Fedora 12 - possibly because of GRUB issues. Now I am trying to install Fedcora 12 from the x86_64 ISO.
Hi All,
I am trying to install Linux Fedora 12 in duo boot with Windows XP.
I burned ISO image to DVD and install Fedora 12 from DVD.
During installation, I select country, language then Fedora displays a list of drivers (looks like network driver).
I hit F12 and select install from DVD drive but Fedora says Fedora not on the DVD.
I installed fedora 12 as second os along with ulimtate vista on 64 bit machine.
i was able finish the install and boot to fedora first time. but after updating the software , i am unable to boot into fedora but am able to boot in to vista.
Hi guys/gals,
I have installed ubuntu before on my laptop (hp envy m6) before no problem. I currently have a CLEAN (i think) install of windows 8 (meh) on it. I am trying to now keep my Windows 8 install on the internal drive, and USB boot off of a 500GB toshiba external USB drive. I have the Fedora 18 disk in the DVD drive.
I'm trying to dual-boot Fedora 17 and Windows XP. I installed Fedora from the live-cd with no problem onto a second hard drive, and put GRUB2 on the first drive so it's the boot loader.
When I try to boot Fedora I get a "Cannot open file font True" message and it stops booting. I looked around and found that the error should only delay the booting, and found how to fix it.
I had Fedora 15 on a computer, dual booted with Windows 7. I did a fresh install of Fedora 17, but in the process I seem to have wiped out its capability to boot Windows 7, which I'm pretty sure is still on the disk.
My plan is to install grub on the /boot partition of the new Fedora 17 and then fix the MBR to boot Windows and use Easy BCD under Windows to dual boot.
I just installed Fedora 17 64 bit. I partitioned my main drive (which houses win 7) while using the live boot from a USB. The install went fine. However, now my PC just insta-boots to win 7 with no option to boot to Fedora. What did I do wrong?
Note: I am a linux noobie looking for experience as I am a CS major. I chose to start my journey with Fedora.
I have Fedora 17 running on a machine and I have a spare drive which I would like to install Win 7 on. Windows 7 will blow away my Linux boot so I want to be confident I can sort out the dual boot (or as a minimum, get back to Fedora) afterwards.
I wanted to setup a boot USB (or CD) with a different grub2 menu and confirm that I could boot with this before installing Windows 7.
hi guys,,,
i have a question here,
