Description of problem:
I was trying to install Fedora Core 1.
On my computer there was 3 system installed
- windows
- RH 7.3
- RH 9
On install it detect installed RH system however Fedora configure only
windows in the boot loader. It would be good if it can add also RH
system to boot loader.

This is because it's impossible to know which kernels to add and what
configuration to use from them (not to mention questions of what is a
valid root partition).  If you're using a  boot loader installed on
the partition, you can add that partition as a chainloaded partition.
