I understand KnoppMyth will only auto install to hda. I have a second hard drive that I'd rather put it on and run it as hdb. Can this be done? If so, how? |

Yes (not that I've done it). After installing, shutting down and change to hdb, boot using the CD (or if you have another Linux distro on hda), mount hdb and change /etc/fstab (on hdb) entries to hda instead of hdb. I think that should do it... |

Depending on where you are using LILO you may need to re-run lilo or change the default boot device in your BIOS also |

In reply to cesman, I'm a little confused by your answer. If I'm running a duel boot Suse Linux 9.2/Windows XP on hda, won't it automatically mount and configure KnoppMyth on hdb once I move it there after I install it to its hard drive? Also, if I did as you suggested to change /etc/fstab on hdb to hda, wouldn't that conflict with Suse/Windows already on hda? Also as a follow up to Gnarl's post, I'm using Grub for booting Suse/Windows, as supplied by Suse. Let me know if I'm right or if I'm mis-understanding something. |

Sorry to be blunt, but I don't care about dual booting. If you are going to use a boot loader on hda to boot the drive, more power to you. |
