<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>Disk 2 is hdb (maybe). And
you want to install your OS (Red Hat, Suse) on this disk. RH will give
you an option for the disk. And you want Grub to recognize disk 1
(hypothetically, /dev/hda) as the main disk. That's it. Oh, yes. You should
be sure to make a bootable floppy for the new Linux, and use it to test
grub.</FONT></DIV>

second Hard Disk</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Dear list:</FONT>
<BR><BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>I have a machine running Windows2000.
I´ve just installed a second hard disk and I´d like to install RH Linux on it
from a CD_ROM installation. I don´t like to partitioning my first hard disk
because I have many value information here. I have some doubts about the boot
loader and with the partitions. Where and how should I install the boot loader
in order to choose the operative system (Windows or Linux) when I power-on the
machine?</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>How I should to chose the

erase its information?</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>I´ll
