Again i would install grub to the MBR. Trust me ive messed with linux for years all my servers run linux, Home computers are 90% linux. If for some reason windows does not boot right, pm your ip and a ssh account with the id in the wheel group or root. and ill fix it. its going to save you alot of trouble using grub as the boot loader. sure you anti virus "might" grumble but ok it. as for using 2 HD for a dual boot system, thats what your doing as a partition. Just its not 2 physical HD's

yeah...i accidentally set the swap partition of my friend's computer i set up for him on his second hard drive, so it wouldnt load the swap right....im hoping he never has a problem with it (512 ram, so it shouldnt be), cuz if he does, i have to set it up so that it runs the second hd when it starts up, and that's a waste of my time, and makes booting slower....

all you have to do is edit the fstab file /etc/fstab

Tell it where the swap partition is
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0

That is my entry in my fstab. before you reboot test fstab with
sudo mount -a
Just to make sure you have it setup right or the system will not boot.

aah, goodie...that makes it easier....i figured it would be something like that....but i would have to go to his house, as i doubt he's gonna make a ssh acount for me to do it with....he's probably gonna make me go over there any way cuz he fuckered up his sound devices in windows.....and aparently he cant fix it....
