#2 son, living in Wellington, guided me through an alternative path last night (well into this morning too!). Will post his solution later when I've got the time - making an entry in the Windows boot.ini file. Now I've got a whole lot of other issues to deal with! In the meantime I had better do some work!

Along comes Fedora Core 2. Great! The install went like a charm ... until the reboot. Of course, Grub still wouldn't load. The boot diskette (CD) for the 2.4 Kernel proved useless too!
I've tried, without success to recreate the loader, even trying to put the loader on /hda. Even went to the extent of renaming some files in the boot partition on /hdb1 ... that caused the installer to think I needed a new loader (which is what I intended!), but when it came to the end of the installation it said the loader was up to date so it didn't need to replace it.
"Help!" ... any suggestions please?
