Hi all,
I currently have an old dual boot (10.04 and XP) system with a couple of extra disks for data (Pics/Music) which is all being consolidated onto a new PC running 10.04.
What I would like is to still have the old dual boot IDE Hard Drive as a bootable disk (to boot into XP).
Is that possible ? I guess it would have to be configured as a slave with it's jumpers - would Grub still be able to boot it on the rare occasions I need to go into xp ?
Advice and tips gratefully received.
