Subject: Fedora 12
Any one thinking to install Fedora 12 and also want to multiboot with
Windows, please be careful. There is very serious bug in Fedora 12
bootloader. You cannot access Windows after install Fedora 12. Fedora 12
install will write boot flag to wrong partition.

Also another problem. All new Linux distro using Grub 2 for bootloader,
very hard to multiboot with Windows. Right now we got no solution. What
we do now in office is install Linux as virtual machine under Windows.
We use Sun VirtualBox OSE.

We now got solution. Must use EasyBCD v 2.x utility for Windows from
NeoSmart Technologies. (http://neosmart.net) Also must follow EasyBCD
instruction very carefully otherwise cannot work. This utility still in
beta. Usually don't recommend beta software but for us no option.

Can use GRUB as Fedora boot but if something go wrong with Windows and
must reinstall then GRUB get whack over. Then cannot access Linux.

Very rough day today. I think this fight between Windows and Linux now
go over the line. I will now go shoot myself in head.

The cocoa puffs didn't jump at you and slap in face because got rice
crispies in same bowl, right? And the rice crispies didn't push over the
hot cup of coffee over your lap just because got cocoa puffs in same
bowl, right? I rest case.
