Hello!
I am trying to install ubuntu 9.10 on my external drive (usb), my internal drive being partitioned for xp (factory settings). I want to keep that and have a dual OS machine..
Installed ubuntu 9.10 (and formatted entire drive) from LiveCD, but it does not work - boots me to Grub rescue... I disabled IBM security chip and predesktop in BIOS and put usb hdd on the top priority to boot, but...
please help!
