So I for one will be looking forward to learning how you did it.              It is going to depend on the BIOS Operating System and whatever       Terminology is used in the screens. I forget who did the ASUS bios on       my CM6730 system. The added kicker in that game was I change one       setting, save change, reboot, then I get the needed screen to make the       change for old fashion booting and save again.       One tweak caused the bios to reorder drive device which was not       obvious to me. Ran for two days before figuring out what the h311 was       going on. Wound up with grub on both drive's MBR. Was having to change       menu.lst to hd0, instead of hd1, to boot Mageia installed on second drive.       Couple of more installs and grub still complained about not finding       what was just installed had me going in circles.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
