    The most common n00b question - Dual booting?

    My system is a dell but as far as its guts go its been upgrading in everyway except the Proccessor & Graphix card. I think its was the Dimension 8something, its a bit old but it does the job. As far as my 'problem' im not having one its just that the first time i installed fedora on a harddrive other than the primary it didnt work so i want to make sure i do everything perfectly as to not provide extra hassle formyself. I used the windows instal disk to set the partitions. (i reinstalled because dell threw on some shit stuff and office, i hate office. And dell screwed up my screen config its able to display 1600x1200 but dell set its max at 1280x1024) oh and BTW what desktop do you guys suggest? Ive used the one that comes with Knoppix but i dunno about Genome. Any suggestions either way. [Edited by Armageddon00 on 2005-07-13 09:53:17]
  3. Ok i hate to sound really stupid and naive but i need to know how to Dual Boot with the Windows XP OS and Fedora (i dunno the # but its about 1 year old, i dont mind re dling it). I have 2 drives set up as follows Drive 1 (80 GB total NTFS) ..Partition 1 (30 MB, I assume this is my boot part.) ..Partition 2 (64 GB, Windows XP is located here) ..Empty Space (~16 GB, This is where i want Fedora) Drive @ (8 GB total RAW (no file system)) ..Partition 1 (8 GB, not formated or anything) ..Empty Space (8 MB, im not sure why but WinXP wouldnt let me make the harddrive all one part.) I think NTFS is non-compatible or something but I dont mind reinstalling windows because this computer does not have anything important on it (i actualy just reinstalled it last week, like 30 video games and im to lazy to go through and clean up all the garbage) If anymore info is needed just ask, i really want to get into linux because im taking High School courses that lead to a carrer in Computer Science, and because I want to try something new.
