And I'm back.
Update:
1. After numerous experiments with getting linux, vista and xp on different drives and partitions and what not, I have finally managed to get XP on, let's call it, SATA-1, Vista on IDE-1.
2. I have to get OSX (iPC) on SATA 2 now. Also, Ubuntu Studio needs to go on either SATA-2 or IDE-1 (whichever's easier).
So my questions now are:
1. Do I install OSX first or Linux first? I am going to keep Vista's bootloader. I have EasyBCD 2.0 Beta on there so I will be booting into that after every install to reset it's bootloader.
2. While installing Ubuntu, I need to install grub only on its own partition but i don't know which device to type in. Is there any way I can find out wheter thats sda/sdb or whatever that partition is going to be?
