Dual Boot Ubuntu with Xp

Dual Booting Linux and Windows on different hard drive assuming you have installed linux and windows not touching each other upon installation.

1st Hard Drive - Ubuntu Linux 8.04 Hardy
2nd Hard Drive - Windows XP Pro

Primary Master is Linux
Primary Slave is Windows

We set Linux as the OS to Boot why? Because I want it.

Edit menu.list in /boot/grub
