If you have two harddrives in your pc and windows is on one and Fedorea on the other try going into the bios and change the harddrive boot order.

I am not sure if you actually booted into Fedora successfully so the above is the best thing to try. Otherwise just install FedoraCore 5 again and on the grub setup set it up to write an entry to the MBR of the first bootable harddrive,. I think maybe that is where you went wrong.

Hi,

first boot using rescue cd .and then run grub-install /dev/hda1 or(where ever linux / is loaded) .It shoudl override the MBR.
