I don't think you can have the os's on two different hdds'... I know you can run 2 os's on one hdd though.

i think you can, i have linux on one hd with xp on the other, i think what you need is a Bootloader like GRUB or the one that partition magic has.

Well with 2 HD's and one OS on each, you have to go into your BIOS to tell the machine which HD to boot from... if you had 2 OS's on 1 HD, it would ask you. I never like having 2 OS's on ONE HD though, just my preference.
