Hi,
I have been trying to get XP and FC2 to run a dual boot. I have read up and seen all the problems and solutions to the bug caused by using XP, and I THINK I may have got it figured out. Now my only problem is to partition my hard drive. I downloaded knoppix and made a boot CD, but when I try to boot from it all it says is "missing OS". I dont know what I did wrong to get that. I thought that I could just run it off the CD without needing linux on my computer. I have a 160Gb single hard drive C:/ that has been defragmented and it looks like most of the data is near the begining(with the exception of one strip of contiguous files about 1/3 of the way from the begining). I am really new with this stuff and I dont know much of anything about partitioning. Plus this is a brand new(2 days) computer so I dont want to delete anything.... Any help would be appreciated.(please make it as "simple" as possible though!)
Thanks in advance,
Charles
