Regards!
I have following situation, and would appreciate if someone could help:
2 disks
- disk No.1 C: and D: partition
- disk No.2 G: and H: partition
On C: partition WinXP is installed, and I am planning to install Ubuntu 7.10 (version if I am correct) on G: partition (which is on other hard disk)
I just want to know, if installation completes successfully, will I see dual boot DOS prompt (WinXP and Ubuntu), after restart.

Yes.

As always, when making partition changes, be sure to have backups and
know the backups are readable.


The letters G: H: also refer to partitions visible for windows, so
changing G: to /dev/sdb1 will probably also change H: to G: :-)
