I triple boot with three different hard drives. I have OpenSuSE 10.3, XP
and Kubuntu 7.10. Kubuntu was the last OS installed. Normally I
disconnect all the hard drives other than the one I want to use for the
install. I didn't this time. Kubuntu set Grub up with both OpenSuSE and
XP with no problems.
