Goals:
1. To add an existing (new) Win7 Ultimate drive (1TB) to an existing Ubuntu 12.04/WinXP dual-boot system.
2. Then copy data from the XP file system to the Win7 file system.
Current configuration
1. 12.04LTS and XP on SATA 1 and SATA 2 drives
2. GRUB works to take me to either partition.
3. XP won't boot any more but I don't need it anyway, and that file system is accessible from Linux.
4. I installed Win7/Ultimate on SATA 3 with the other two drives disconnected.
__________________________________________________ ____________________________________________
Problem: If I connect all drives the computer will only boot to Win7 and not grub.
Question:
Is there a way to make GRUB work again and give me the choice to boot either 12.04 or Win7 without reformatting
anything? Is this a simple partition manager configuration?
If not then what's my proceedure from here?
Thanks in advance,
Ron
