NOT if you do not let it during the install process. Anaconda will let you specify where to install grub. Assuming your end disk is seen by Anaconda as /dev/sdb then one of the final stages of Anacond will ask you where you want grub to be installed. Be sure to select /dev/sdb. So, when you press F12, you will be able to boot from 2nd disk. Good luck. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
