Problem with Fedora Core4 Installation

#1 Post by Ram Prasad »

Earlier i had MS WinXP installed and working well with my dell laptop.
Recently i installed Fedora Core 4 as per the installation instructions. Once
after the complettion of installation when i tried to boot in MS Windows,
booting has been failed with some message "Chainloader+1". Fedora booting is happening normally. I expect somebody would help me in this.

On my computer's Hard disk, the partition are made as following.
SDA1:- Partition 1: Fat32 - Primary Partiotn (Data)
SDA2:- Partition 2: / root for Fedora Core 4 - Primary Partion
SDA3:- Partiotn 3: Extended Partition with thre logical partions including linux swap partion
SDA4:- Partion 4: Primary Partition where MS Windows XP Media Centre is installed

In Grub command line, i tried the commands
> rootnoverify(hd0,4)
> makeactive
> chainloader+1

But it is useless, Windows is not booted. Any suggestions or ideas to solve this problem?

With best regards,
Ram Prasad
