Can you please provide the complete anacdump.txt you received?

This is the anacdump.txt file.
Thanks

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2004-12-08 15:26:54 UTC
There are a lot of errors of the form
<6> hdc:hdc: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
<4>hdc: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
<4>ide: failed opcode was: unknown
<4>hdc: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }

in the syslog which are usually the sign of a dead/dying drive (or bad
cable).  Booting with ide=nodma may let things continue working a
little bit longer, although slowly.  

Comment 5 Dahool 2004-12-09 15:35:19 UTC
How can I solve this problem? 
And how can I put the Fedora Core 3 on the same harddisk that contain 
the Microsoft Windows?
Thanks.
