Hi,
I recently installed Intrepid and now I need to remove Hardy.
The situation is:
Primary master hard disk- Windows XP and Hardy dual boot with grub
Primary slave hard disk- Intrepid with grub
Hardy is only using a single partition. I know I need to format that partition and install Windows' bootloader in the MBR but I don't have a Windows XP cd.
Also I might install some other small distributions in the freed up space so I wanted to keep grub as it is. Unfortunately the boot folder is in the Hardy partition.
Is it possible for me to remove Hardy and create a small partition in the master disk and then install grub to the new partition? If so how do I do it ?
Thanks for the help and for reading my long post.
