Gunnar,

for handling of USB devices google for "udev-rules".
Booting depends if you use the Windows loader or the Linux loader. Completely different handling between XP ins Vista/7. Same with old and new Grub version.

Hi Gunnar,

when you install UBUNTU on a windows machine, normally UBUNTU will take care
of the boot process, in GRUB windows is the last one in the list...

Hi,
I am running both my server at home and the client onboard that way. 
One thing that is annoying me is that with dual boot I always have to check
so it does not start in Windows.
Is there a way of starting in Ubuntu direct?
An other problem is that on board I have quite a few different units
connected to the computer via USB and Ubuntu has a bit difficult with
knowing what is what!! Wind, echo sounder, AIS, GPS, audio interface and so
on!! Per recommended to unplug the USB when booting and it works but it´s
extra work!!

Hi Andy, 
if you install Ubuntu after Windows it will do also the dual boot for you. I
am running Ubuntu on the server pc and had never any problems with that.

I am planning to join the MARS PSKMAIL network and run a  server.  In the
past I ran a server of a Puppy CD.  For simplicity of interface with my
digital mode interfaces, I would like not to switch computers when I
activate the part-time server or move back to ham operations via Windows.
  My PC has two hard drives, the second one is never used.
  I was wondering if anyone had advice about a dual boot system and how to
install?  Also what Linux variant is recommended for use with PSKmail server
software ?

Andy
