hey all, I got this computer with ubuntu installed first. There's another hard drive and I want to install vista on it. What is the best way of doing it? can I choose which bootloader to use?

Thanks!

Hi,

I 've Ubuntu one my first HDD and Windows XP on second HDD. Simply install ubuntu on first and Vista on second HDD and then modify ubuntu grub to make it boot vista. Grub is a good bootloader.
