Use Windows OS loader to guide the practical experience of Fedora 10

1. The first step is partitioning. This is very important. Make sure to back up the data.
Note: my hard disk is 60 Gb. I first used a Windows installation disk and divided it into two 20 GB partitions, drive C and drive D. According to Windows rules, it will divide drive C into the primary partition, other disks are divided into extended partitions (the extended partitions also occupy one primary partition location, and one hard disk can only have four primary partitions), while the D disk is the logical partition under the extended partition. In this way, the remaining 20 GB of unpartitioned space is also placed in the extended partition, which I want to use to install fedora.
I installed windows first, but it was not satisfactory. When I tried to create the/boot primary partition in the remaining 20 GB space, it was not successful. I guess it should be a matter of partitioning, because it is not reasonable to set the logical partition as the primary partition.
So I deleted the D disk and the extended partition. I used the fedora partition tool to create the/boot primary partition and swap primary partition after drive C, with one primary shard left, you can create an extended partition. Therefore, I have created/AND/home on the extended partition. I have installed fedora successfully. Do not install grub on the MBR, only install it in the/boot partition.

 

2. re-boot fedora with the CD and enter the emergency mode. In the last step, you will be prompted to enter chroot/mnt/sysimage to mount the partition, and exit will restart.
Step 1: Enter the chroot/mnt/sysimage Mount partition information
Step 2: fdisk-L to view the partition information. Find the Linux/boot partition and Windows FAT32 partition. My drive C is an NTFS partition,

Fedora cannot be identified. Fortunately, I have a USB flash drive and the USB flash drive device is/dev/sdb.
Step 3: Create a USB flash disk mount point by mkdir/mnt/winc, and mount/dev/sdb1/mnt/winc.
Step 4: copy/boot information to the USB flash drive. You can run the DD command.
Dd If =/dev/sda2 of =/mnt/winc/Fedora. lnx BS = 512 COUNT = 1
Step 5: Copy fedora. lnx to drive C, edit boot. ini, and add a line
C:/Fedora. lnx = "fedora 10"
