Hello!
I want to dualboot FedoraCore3 with Win 98. How do I do it ? Here is a sample of my bootmessage that I get when I boot with loadlin: .. NET: Registered protocol family 17 md: Autodetecting RAID arrays. md: autorun ... md: ...autorun DONE. EXT2-f2 warning (device hda3):ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2 VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly Freeing unused kernel memory: 144k freed Warning: unable to open an initial console. SELinux: Disabled at runtime. SELinux: Unregistering netfilter hooks

Install w98 first in a f32 partition, and then secondly install the fc3, the fc3 will auto dectect the existing w98, during insatllation of fc3 at configuartion of boot loader, just take whatever the default setting, when finished, the grub will be the boot up manual for you to select which O/S you want to boot up with (w98 or fc3). Hope I understood your post correctly.
Hi !
Thanks for the answer Barry Yu, but it's my fault that I didn't specify more clearly what I meant.
I am not using Grub or Lilo as a bootloader because I don't want to mess up my MBR in Windows98, i like to have win98 as first boot. I want to use Loadlin, to load the Fedorakernel into memory from Win98-DOS. I have done what I suppose to do, according to the Loadlin+Win95/98ME mini-HOWTO(http://www.eskimo.com/~praxis/) But it doesn't work properly when I Boot Fedora from Win98-DOS. Here is a sample of my bootmessage that I get when I boot with loadlin from win98 to Fedora :
NET: Registered protocol family 17 md: Autodetecting RAID arrays. md: autorun ... md: ...autorun DONE. EXT2-fs: hda3: Couldn't mount because of unsupported optional features (4). Kernel panic - not syncing : VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (3,3).
Then the system go into halt and I have to push my RESET-button to reboot my system back to win98.
So, what to do ? I need help .........
Is there anyone out there, that starts FedoraCore3 with Loadlin in Windows98, that can help me to configure my system properly ?
Thanks all. Philip Moller Malmo, Sweden

You are on the wrong list for these questions! The SE in this list name is for Security Enhanced not Swedish! Security Enhanced Linux: http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/ (Inte Svenska Linuxföreningen)

It seems loadlin may not be compatible with either the ext3 filesystems or with SELinux. Since FC3 has the filesystems labeled by SELinux and anything booting to that must be able to handle the differences this may be what you need to investigate.
It is extremely easy to use grub or lilo and dual boot without harming your win98 system. I use that regularly and have never had a problem. If you do, a simple boot with a floppy or win98 install CD and using "fdisk /mbr" will always restore the MBR to that expected by a windows install.
Using an older tool that very few people actually use is problematic.
