[nflug] dual boot

[Stephen]

ok I went back to his room changed boot sequence to hdc and computer 
hung for 5 min after listing pci listing

hda holds XP
hdb is dvd
hdc Fedora
hdd spare drive

out of curiosity I rebooted with cd in after first options I get a 
screen to install or upgrade detected
fedora core6  (/dev/VolGroup00/LoGVol00)

thanks
Stephen
