I recently acquired a 2nd hard drive to add to my screwdriver shop system that currently boots XP Pro from drive 0.
I would like to install Ubuntu or Ubuntu Studio 7.x (http://www.howtoforge.com/the_perfect_desktop_ubuntustudio7.04) on the 2nd drive, and be given a choice which OS to boot when the machine is powered up or restarted. Most available tutorials assume the Linux distro will be the sole OS on the system (or share the system only with other Linux distros). I have practical reasons to wish to maintain the existing XP installation. Any recommended precautions or course of action I should take? I hope this is a stupid question, as I wish this to be easy!
