Hello, You will probably need to get into your BIOS and tell it to boot the third hard disk. In my experience, Microsoft's boot loader will not load linux. You usually enter the BIOS by pressing ESC, F2, or DEL when your computer is first booting up. Many newer computers have a "boot prompt" key, like F9 on HP computers. My Asus motherboard's quick-boot key is F11. The quick boot / boot prompt key will ask you once which device to boot from, and the next boot would be back to normal.

I installed Ubuntu on the third one (LILO is also installed there) and can't get the system to boot to Linux. I've tried modifying the boot.ini but can't seem to get the proper settings. Any suggestions?
