Hi All
I am facing problem in instaling dual boot with XP and scientific linux
5.1. Although earlier I had installed dual booting with SL 5.0 and vista
and XP many times. Now I am installing it on a new computer HP Compact
DC7800.
First I installed XP in a separate partition. Then I started Linux
Instalation.  I have made /, swap and /home /boot partition and installed
linux on / partition.In the begining of instalation I have to give linux
pci=nommconf
 because otherwise instalation does not proceed. But after that everything
instaled perfectly. When after instalation I restarted and selected xp it
is saying that "A disk read error occured."
Thanks
kashif
