First and formost - pick up a good A+ book. Learn why drives boot in a
certain order, learn about boot sectors. Learn why drives on seperate
controllers work the way they do.
That's the problem with youngsters these days - most have no idea about
the basics of PC's. Why they work the way they do. I won't even speak of
the old DOS days and using fdisk...
Tsk, tsk, tsk ...
Next - read the handbook on dual booting, then - search the list
archives. It's been covered more time then you might expect. However, it
does take a little work on your part to find the answer.
