Dual Installation Windows and Fedora 8(Linux)

First of all Let us Take a Free Hard Disk or Empty ( Example of 80gb Hard disk.)

First installation is Your Window Installation ..

Question is dat How to Partition the Hard drive it’s simple

Ans : Boot From Windows xp,2000,xp professional,98 cd.

Hard disk Partition :Make Three Partition (two for Windows let’s Say c:,d: and one for linux say e:/)

Install WIndows in Drive C:/ or As u Prefer(Let us take c:/)

Configure Windows Completely all the drivers installed:)

Now Boot From Fedora 8 Dvd and Follow Step Wise Installation just leaving your Windows Partition.

There is A grub Configuration which is Helpful in the Dual Boot .

Now after Configuration :Go to ->applications-> System tools->Terminal

No Need TO change Grub Config If it is Setup During Installation  

Now  Care fully  Follow steps below:-

vi /boot/grub/grub.conf

at the end write this :-

title Windows XP
root (hd0,1)
chainloader +1

The root (hd_,_) would vary, depending on where your XP was.
 Numbering starts at 0, for the first drive, and 0 for the first partition on that drive.
 so, (hd0,0) would be the first partition on the first drive.
 (hd0,1) would the the second partition on the first drive, and so on.

My config Now:

HD1 (IDE) Part 1 : C:> ntfs (Dynamic volume) WinXP
Part 2 : D:> ntfs
HD2 (SATA) Part 1 : E:> ntfs
Part 2 : Linux swap /dev/sda2
Part 3 : Linux Fedora 8 root /dev/sda3
