Is it possible to install the Enlightenment desktop on top of a Ubuntu minimal install?

Just to make sure I understand correctly, when you say the Ubuntu drives will pick up the OS's on other drives, you're not saying it will actually transfer files, right? It just shows up on a Grub...

How do I disable the OS prober? And what do you mean by installing the boot loader to the MBR? Thanks again for the help!
