[Klug-general]I've just had a slight problem with linux

[Tim McDonnell]

Hey there Darren is it still broke? I had Ubuntu running on a seperate hard

allow me to load windows or linux it turned out that the IDE cable had some
how came loose from the Second HD (pesky little MS nanobots), just thought
id put that out there as a possibility.
