Hi! I'll introduce you to my problem.
So, I wanted to install Fedora 18 on my laptop. I downloaded the latest ISO and mounted it with Unetbootin on a USB stick. I got to where it started asking me about partitioning my drives, and here's where I think I messed up. I know nothing about partitioning so I just took two big chunks out of my main drive and called them "/" and "/boot" respectively. Then I grabbed another 1mb bit and called it "biosboot". I then proceeded to install Fedora 18 without recieving any error messages.
BUT, now when I start my computer without the USB it doesn't boot anything! BIOS shows no boot options whatsoever (except my dvd reader). When I put my USB stick in, I can run choose to "Try" Fedora or install it again. What have I done wrong, where is my Fedora and what happened to my Windows 7 installation? I can access all my old files through the "Try Fedora" file manager so my data is still there.
