Trouble with GRUB and multiple HD 's

Trouble with GRUB and multiple HD 's

Gaaa! No, windows has never been on these disks. There is a linux fdisk. In
fdisk partitions can be marked as bootable (as long as they are primary partitions).

The disk is not bootable in the sense that there is a valid Operating System on
it, it is used as a data disk. I 'm attempting to install GRUB on it because it
is the only disk that the BIOS will see as bootable.

Cheers,
Harry

The next time your boss says:
"Let 's not focus on the negative, but rather look at the positive ",
punch them in the gut and respond:
"Let 's not focus on how negative this makes you feel
but rather how positive I am now feeling ".
