Help a Linux newbie
Posted: 13 Nov 2009, 14:48
Hey guys,
I recently joined up here after getting back into the PC scene..so now I'm hoping the Linux people are as friendly and helpful as I've heard
I have a pc with two hard drives, the primary HDD is running Vista. I recently installed Ubuntu 9.10 on the secondary drive. Now the problem is I don't know how to set it to dualboot. When I start the pc with both drives plugged in, it automatically boots to Vista. If I want to use Ubuntu I have to boot from CD, which is abit of an inconvenience. I've read some how -to's and it sounds like I have to first boot into Ubuntu and then change something that should give me a dualboot option when starting my pc.
Any ideas?
