You did not answer the question, Yes, this is a board for UNIX, and Yes, Gnu/Linux questions are accepted, thats not what
Zazzybob is questioning.
You stated you want to remove Fedora Core 2; which is Gnu/Linux, so you can install Microsoft Windows, then you say that the CD for Sun Solaris does not boot. Thats 3 different operating system your referring to.
Why are you trying to use the Solaris CD to remove Fedora Core 2?
