Ubuntu and Debian together?

Yo

I have two hard disks. One has Ubuntu, the other yet to be installed. Is it possible to load debian on the other hard disk?

Thanks

hi pozzie !!!

its possible..... but it depends where you going to install boot loader.. for dual booting....
one way is unplug first disk, install debian without boot loader, plug-in both disks and update master disks boot loader, grub.conf or menu.list....
other way is plug-in both disks, install debian in second with boot loader..... it should be master disk.....

i think you should start a new thread to have suggestions from other members..... (title)
