Hello
I have this problem , i Have two Hard-drives a WD 500Gb Sata with windows 7 installed and an IDE Maxtor 40Gb mounted as slave .I want Ubuntu to be installed on the Maxtor.I usually used to choose grub to be installed on the MBR of the first one , but that meant that every time i needed to reinstall windows or Ubuntu i Would loose both of them , i need some help telling me how to do so , without effecting the boot loader of the windows but still capable of booting both.Story made short , if i disconnect any of the hard drives i would still be capable of booting into the other.
Thank you
