When you install the new operating system, the autoloader (grub) will automatically be put on the 
same disk.  In order to get windows to recognize your new kubuntu takes a lot of doing and may not 
be worth the trouble.  If you install kubuntu on the primary disk, it goes a lot smoother and you 
are up and running quickly.  It is the way I have done it many times before and I have never had any 
problems.  It may be that grub would be installed on the primary hdd anyway, that is something I 
will have to check out since I have never done it that way.  Does somebody else has any experience 
with this?  
Do you mean that you are not sure about the steps to install?  I am not too sure what you mean by 
procedures.  If you could explain it a little more, I'd be glad to try and help you out.
