[ubuntu-uk] dual boot with 2 HDDs

[Norman Silverstone]

Some time ago I had a desktop machine which had been set up with 2 HDDs
one running Ubuntu and the other Windows XP Pro. Unfortunately this
machine is no longer in the land of the living and I am considering
setting up another machine with a similar configuration. The intention
would be Ubuntu 10.04 on one drive and XP Pro on the other. (I still
have the old HDD with XP Pro installed and would like to use that.) I
remember that I needed to make an addition to the Ubuntu boot menu and I
can find the details of that addition. However, I expect that the
current version of Grub is not the same as the old one and would much
appreciate it if someone would be kind enough to tell me whether or not
what I propose is feasible.
