Hi guys, bit of an awkward question here:
I have 3 hard drives
1) Windows XP Pro
2) Storage drive
3) Empty (But this is the drive I want to install Ubuntu on)
Now, 1) drive is the first hdd boot device BUT I don't want to write GRUB to this drive because if I want to delete Ubuntu I don't want to have to configure the MBR again.
When GRUB asks what drive I want to install on it had the default as hd0 (my windows drive) so I thought if I chose hd2 it would install on the Ubuntu drive.
I was wrong and I get an error message 17 when booting saying the volume couldn't be mounted.
Anyone can tell me how to configure GRUB so it is installed on my 3rd drive along with the installation of Ubuntu. I'd be very grateful. Cheers in advance
