Supplemental harddrive.

Am planning on adding a secodary SCSI hardrive to the existing 20gb drive., that I have. The old drive has Linux on it. Once, the new drive is added, I am planning on having windows on it.

Firstly, could this be done ? Has anyone build a system with a similar configuration ? What is requried, to have dual boot (from 2 hard drive), with LINUX as the primary OS ?

Let me know if you have further quesitons,
John
