external usb drive
yesterday i posted a question about adding a second hdd and just changing the bios whenever i wanted to use fc5 i have since thought of perhaps a better idea and am wondering if it would work
if i buy an external usb hdd and install fc5 to that then change the bios to usb booting before my hdd1 then couldnt i just plug in the usb drive then restart my computer whenever i wanted to use fc5. another question about this method is how would i disconnect the drive if i disconnected it before i shut down what would happen or could i just shut down, unplug and restart with hdd1 booting windows since nothing would be connected to usb. to be honest im not sure if i can even boot from a usb drive or not any answers are much apprecieated
