When I installed Win 10TP I left my main Win8.1 SSD drive connected and
installed to a seperate SSD.
Now when the system is booting it gives me the option of using Win8.1 or
Win10TP, no mucking in bios or F12 needed.

Hi Rene

I did the same as you at first with a menu of booting choice if I kept
win 8 disk as boot option 1

How would I get UBUNTU on the menu afterwards?

In fact if I am not careful Grub would get installed on win 8 hard
disk and I would see an ugly Grub menu.

MUCKING around with the bios is something i have enjoyed and has been educational :-)

I only do it at home in my spare time and NOT in my office which has
windows 8.1 on my computer, Win 7 on my adminstrative assistants computer
and Windows xp on my lab equipment where I make my living :-)

Something like this equipment.

I am going to retire in 3 years so will continue to use this win xp based dinosaur
which the manufacturer has "retired" (means no spare parts if needed. Only available
on second hand resale market)..
