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.
