[FredLUG] Linux and SATA question.

[William Oakes]

Hi group,

One of my systems, a Gateway 700GS, is entirely SATA based. At present I
have WinXP on the boot drive, and a second drive containing data.  I was
thinking of adding a third SATA drive and loading Linux on it.  Is it
possible to make this configuration a duel boot system?  How would I go
about it?

Would I install GRUB on the original WinXP drive and point it to the boot
sector on the Linux drive, or on the Linux drive and point it towards the XP
drive, or is either feasible?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

TIA, Bill..

PS, it's great talking to you all on IRC/#fredlug.
