Boot w/ grub
 
Hi All,

Gotta a strange problem. I have 2 HDDs. Primary runs WinXP secondary Linux. Due to the reason that the drives are noisy I wanted to unplug the power cord of the Linux HDD. But then grub freezes during the boot and I cannot start WinXP.
Any solution to come over this?

Thx, Teddy

comment out the linux boot option from grub? then remove the cabel?

Not really ok
 
And what will happen when I plug back? I remove the comment? Unplug two secs (rack) uncomment two minutes? Sorry this is not a real solution.
Honestly I do not understand why grub has to check the exist of the OS before choosing it to start...
