Re: Partition problems...
Having done dual-booting for years, let me share some advice ...
Since you have separate drives, disconnect the MS Windows drive when you install Ubuntu. This will prevent the problem of overwriting the MS Windows MBR with GRUB.
Once you have Ubuntu installed, reconnect the MS Windows drive, but continue to boot from the UBuntu drive.
Then, open a terminal in Ubuntu and enter "sudo update-grub". This should auto-generate a new GRUB config file that will include an entry for booting MS Windows as well as Ubuntu.
Ubuntu 20.04, Mint 19.10; MS Win10 Pro.
Will not respond to PM requests for support -- use the forums.
