Windows 200/fedora core 6 dual boot problems

nissanracer007
I recently installed fedora core 6 on a 400gb hard drive on a new partition. I already had windows 2000 installed on a seperate partition. I wanted to be able to pick which os to run. I only get fedora to start up and no choice to run windows.

I need advice with finishing installing FC5. During installation when it goes to reboot, XP loads and I do not get an option. Two HDDs Master-Active-XPpro Slave-FC5 I did choose for GRUB to be in MBR.

Old Posts

Bigade
Out of the 908 posts in Buy Sell and Trade, only 5 of them are for this year. Doesn't it use up space on the server keeping all these old posts in place? Some of them go back as far as 2000. As this is a free site, and still must cost money to operate, wouldn't it be more prudent to erase the older ones.
