Can someone point me to a step-by-step help with installing Kubuntu 8.10 on an external USB HDD.
I had 8.04 installed on a USB HDD but I needed to have the USB HDD attached to boot Vista on my laptop. I ended up building the laptop MBR and in the process lost access to Linux.
So, what I need is to have the Laptop (Vista) boot up without the USB HDD attached and I need Linux to boot when I attach is to the laptop and power it up. My laptop does support booting from USB.
I've got to believe this is simple but I cannot find a guide to show how to do this and the last time I tried it I screwed it up.
Thanks for any help.
