Actually, if you were to run to separate drives, and the first drive had no dos
partitions on
it, Windows wouldn't even recognize it. It would still call the second drive 'C'
(because
non-dos partitions don't get a drive letter). At least that makes sense in my head,
well
that's another
Well in my way of thinking...the BIOS assigns Drive letters weather there is a
filesystem on it or not...changing the Windows C: installed drive to somewhere
else in the chain, will still produce the file not found errors because the
drive is now assigned Drive D or more, and the installed drive
I could be wrong, but I don't believe your bios cares what letter is on any given
drive. You
do however, need to tell it where your MBR resides. That's why you can boot from a
floppy
disk or a zip drive. It doesn't need to know which comes first (c,d,e,f,etc), it just
needs
the path from
a new distribution of
linux later? Or do I have to edit the BIOS?
