I'm trying to uninstall FC6. I deleted the Linux partitions and then rebooted with the windows cd, went into repair, and typed in "fixmbr." When I rebooted, the grub booter was still there, but not fully working. I got windows to boot using this code:
I dont really want to do this everytime, so does anyone know why "fixmbr" didnt work or what to do instead?Code:grub> rootnoverify (hd0,0)
grub> makeactive
grub> chainloader +1
grub> boot
execute 'fixboot' command after 'fixmbr'. in case, it doesn't work, download Windows 98 Bootable Floppy from www.bootdisk.com, boot from it and execute
Code:A:\> fdisk /mbr

Thanks tons. It worked. I hate to go back to windows, but I've been forced to. I guess I just use too many programs that only run on windows...
Linux has an alternative of almost every Windows based software. check this Windows Alternate Packages in Linux.
