With this new external drive install ability can I install Ubuntu onto my external SATA/USB drive and still be able to boot Vista on other drive without the external drive being on?
Previous versions of Ubuntu installed to the external drive meant I always had to have the external turned on in order to boot either OS because of Grub. I really didn't like doing that because it's unportable that way and if I was going to use Vista then I didn't want the external Ubuntu drive with its fairly noisy fan on.
thanks,
Rob
