Disk Error
I'm trying to install XP on a FAT32 partition. It went through the first phase (the blue installation screen, no GUI yet), but it won't boot to the GUI setup phase. Here's what I did:
1. Backed stuff up to my OSX HDD 2. Formatted the drive 3. Made 2 partitions: 1 OSX, 1 80GB FAT32 4. Put the couple of backed up folders (just games) back onto the FAT32 partition 5. Run XP installation, everything seemed to go fine Then I get "Disk Error" when the system reboots. I booted back into the XP installation disk and did fixboot and fixmbr, and I have the same problem. Any ideas? Thanks.

The old file system was probably NTFS... Try NTFS....
