>                           Now I am planning to have both the hard disk one

them by editing boot.ini and lilo.conf

the hard way, is to manually edit all entries
for /dev/hda* as /dev/hdb* in the /etc/fstab
and in the lilo also.

then connect the linux hdd as secondary
get a grub floppy image, write to a floppy,
start the grub loader from that, then in
the command line issue commands to boot from
the /dev/hdb.

edit the lilo.conf to include your win$xp in the lilo
conf, make the boot=/dev/hda in lilo.conf

write lilo boot manager in the mbr of current primary
by running /sbin/lilo

now you should be able to boot off  /dev/hdb from
lilo menu.
