RE: 4. Grub problem with Ubuntu (Jonathan Cassar) Jonathan,
ide drives on linux are named as /dev/hda hdb hdc etc according to the order in which they are found. sata and scsi drives are named as /dev/sda, sdb, sdc etc. the first partition on your first drive would be /dev/hda1 the second partition on your first drive would be /dev/hda2 (or sda2 for sata/scsi) so your second disk (where Ubuntu is installed) would be /dev/hdb or /dev/sdb depending on if it is ide or sata/scsi Regards, Kevin > Send MLUG-list mailing list submissions to > [email protected] > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://mailserv.megabyte.net/mailman/listinfo/mlug-list > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of MLUG-list digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
