Hi, I'm new to Linux and recently installed Knoppix onto my HD. I was planning on dual booting, but unfortunately I lost XP during the installation of Knoppix. Now I cannot figure out how to install XP back onto my system. I have an NTFS partition of 20 gig reserved for Windows, but I cannot install XP. I tried booting off the XP CD, I also tried booting of XP floppies but the data on disk 4 is consistently corrupt despite my multiple attempts. I also tried inserting the XP CD while in Knoppix and using WINE to install XP, but that also did not work.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Seeger

P.S. If it matters I'm using XP Home edition with SP1
