I remember reading an excellent document some months ago on how to install FC2 onto a Windows box without trashing the boot sector so that Windows wouldn't boot. It talked about interrogating the boot sector to get some configuration infomration, then feeding that into anaconda during the FC2 install. It was quite long, but with its help, I was successful.

But I've lost the document. Does anyone know it, and have a URL?

Or you could just use FC3.

The issue with FC2 was the kernel changed the format for how it reports partitions, and Windows XP (as opposed to any previous version of Windows) wants the partitions written to in a different format. I believe the issue is fixed now.
