I have a new computer with a blank HD.
My old computer has a nice SSD with my Ubuntu 12.04 system on it.
I want to put my SSD into the new machine as the primary drive, THEN I want to install Win7 on the blank HD (NTFS), and set them up to dual boot.
Is this feasible? or do I need to reinstall Ubuntu and start from scratch?
If it's possible, can someone give me some pointers on things i would need to configure, and/or a tutorial? I'm guessing I need to re-config my grub to see both drives/OSs but i'm not sure how to do that.
I found a couple of tuts but nothing that quite matches my situation... I'm fairly proficient with Linux, but this is a bit out of the norm for me.
