My parents just want to be able to turn on the computer and have it boot Windows and not have to select anything. I don't mind inserting a floppy disk to boot Fedora. I'd have Fedora Core installed on a seperate hard drive but I'd want to be able to boot it only by using a floppy.

Why not just set Windows as the default OS in your grub.conf and use a timeout
of a few seconds so that Windows is booted unless you explicitly (and quickly)
choose Linux?
