Hi,
What I really want to do is this
I currently have a bootloader that has the following entries (XP by default)
1) Microsoft Windows XP 1
2) Microsoft Windows XP 2

I'd like to install fedora and I don't know how to migrate my bootloader so that it includes Fedora to the above list. In what order and what steps can I install Fedora so that It wouldn't affect the current "situation", but adding Fedora or MAC OS X to the list? I have thought about using a boot manager and I can give it a try if it doesn't hurt but in my past experience, bootloader like system commander would damage the HAL file so that Windows XP no longer boots. Is there a safer ways of doing this without disrupting my current OS deployment?
Thanks
Jack
