My /boot/grub/menu1st has the linux kernels loaded --"hd 0.0" and the 20 g 
disk is called in "disks dev/hda1" and the 10G disk is called"dev/hdb1" I 
just want to pass this by you so I do not mess up. Also if I install 
WindowsXP do I do that after editing Grub? If I start the WindowsXP cd will 
it give me a chance to choose the 10G drive ? Sorry for all the questions but 
I want to be sure before I proceed.
