Changing the Master Boot Record..
I started out with a computer running only Windows XP Home Edition. Then, I decided to install a second hard drive on my computer and install Ubuntu on it. The installation worked without any problems. When I start my computer (with both drives present) I am given a list of OSs to choose from and both Ubuntu and Windows run correctly. However, when I remove the second hard drive (with Ubuntu), I get an error message to do with "Grub". It seems like the computer is, unsuccessfully, looking for a grub file on the hard drive or MBR. How can I get the computer to boot from the primary hard drive (Windows XP) without the other drive being present?
