| 534332 | 2007-03-19 06:43:00 | Hey all, Does anyone know how I can create a boot menu to allow the option to switch between Windows XP and Kubuntu 6.10? Installing Each to a separate HD seems to over-rule the other and simply load straight into the last installed OS, I'm only just taking the plunge now into Linux, any help is greatly appreciated, thanks, Cornot |

| 534333 | 2007-03-19 06:55:00 | You normally let Kubuntu install a bootloader (GRUB or LILO) which gives you the options of what OS to boot. Did you say no to installing the bootloader to the MBR during installation? | Jen (38) | ||
| 534334 | 2007-03-19 07:00:00 | ...I'm honnestly not too sure - should I reinstall Kubuntu then? And enable the boot loader? brb |

| 534338 | 2007-03-19 09:09:00 | There was also the following which worked quite well. How to dual boot Ubuntu and Windows XP without changing the Windows MBR (ubuntuforums.org) It's old and probably outdated and might not work. |
