Hi All:
Since I was asked to make my first post here, why I will!
My name is Marty Felker and I've playing (and working) with these foolish machines ;) since 1962 I've seen a few changes!
Anyway, My question is the following. I have a machine (64-bit Athlon 2800 running at 2GZ - 2 GB RAM -ASUS K8V-X mobo and other specs if you wish). The machine has 3 80GB WD drives. I have Windows 2000 (the best of the hokey M$ OS's) dual booting Windows Fedora Core 4 (64 bit - 64 bit Windows will be "ready real soon now"). I wish to install one more Linux on my "real machine" (have VMware to fool with several others). I like Ubuntu because I can get software RAID during install. I already have md0 setup in Fedora as the / partition (reiserfs). So my question is - will the Ubuntu install program be able to properly setup GRUB so I can boot to Windows AND Fedora? I really don't want to screw up Fedora since I've put a lot of work into it. Is this going to be impossible? Hard I can live with.
Thanks to all of you.
