After successfully installing Fedora 9 everytime I boot Vista for the very first time Fedora refuses to boot with the grub error message #13 "Invalid or unsupported executable format". * I may boot Fedora as often as I like *immediately* after installing Fedora - but the first boot of Vista kills it all. * Grub is placed into MBR, Vista resides in the primary partition (Vista was pre-installed), one hard disk. * Using Fedora 8 before - everything was perfect... * Thanks in advance.

Greetings,

I set up my F9/vista box by placing grub into the boot partition
instead of the MBR. Then I set the boot flag on the boot partition
using parted. This way I avoid using the 'new' vista boot loader at
all.
