[nmglug] Help with transition from Windoze 98 to Linux

[Lee Einer]

I have a friend with an antiquated Windoze 98 box. I donated to him a
Linux PC, and got it up and running for him yesterday.

The problem is, he did not get the stuff off the Windows box which he
wanted to keep. The Windows box only has a floppy drive, no cd burner,
so moving this crap from one box to the other the normal way will be way
tedious.

If I pull the hard drive from the windows box, jumper it as a slave and
put it in the Linux box as a second hard drive, will Grub recognize it
and allow the option to boot from the Windows drive? Or does Grub just
look at the primary hard drive?
