From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040207 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: When installing FC2 test1 on a disk that contains an Windows XP (NTFS) DiskDruid complians about the geometry of the disk. When DD has created new partitions and the installition has finnished Windows won't boot because of the erronious partition geometry (no, its not a grub problem). FC boots fine however. If the disk is inserted into another machine running windows it can be accessed but partition magic refuses to handle the drive because of the unsupported geometry. Even when installing FC on a separate drive DD ruins the windows installatio although that drive was never touched during the configuration. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have a Windows drive / partition somwhere in your machine 2. Run anaconda and disk druid Actual Results: WinXP wont boot. Expected Results: WinXP should boot. Additional info:
