Re: Natty dual boot on separate hard drives
FWIW, rEFIt is primarily a GUI boot loader (see the screen shot on its Web page). It tends to pick up video glitches (text-mode error messages over the GUI) when run on UEFI-based machines (vs. EFI-based Macs), though -- or maybe that's the version that's distributed with Ubuntu. Thus, you can use rEFIt in conjunction with a short timeout period on GRUB or ELILO to boot into Linux with minimal text-mode displays. The rEFIt glitches could be an issue, though.
If I've suggested a solution to a problem and you're not the original poster, do not try my solution! Problems can seem similar but be different, and a good solution to one problem can make another worse. Post a new thread with your problem details.
