My current machine, relatively new, has two hard drives. Which one is booted from is determined by which cable the drive is plugged in to. For now this has been okay. I have an older 500 GB drive running Ubuntu 12.04, which is my production drive. The drive that came with the box (from ENU a few months ago) is a 1 TB drive with Ubuntu 14.04 on it. I'd like to be able to set up the machine to let me choose which drive to boot from. While I don't care for several aspects of 14, I understand that 12 won't be supported forever -- and indeed, since I'm very hesitant to run the upgrade my installation of 12 is no longer supported. I need to be able to switch over to 14 after the day's work is done so I can try to figure out how to live with the changes. It's not just Ubuntu either. Libre Office changed some things that are annoying, too. But I've already groused about that, so I'll spare you the details.
Anyway, will there be a clinic next Sunday, August 17? And, will someone who understands the current version of GRUB be there? I did take a brief stab at figuring out what to put where with GRUB, but it seems to have been "improved" in a way that is a bit arcane for me to follow without guidance. -- Regards, Dick Steffens _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
