About that project/experiment of mine...

The delayed experiment has been completed now and is a general success. There are a few kinks to work out (namely a few video driver issues causing the boot menu to be shifted off to the left of the screen) but, I now have 2 HDD's in my desktop with a different operating system on each.

The HDD installed by the factory will continue using the WinXP install it has always had. The other one that was installed tonight is running Linux Mint.

Also, I have boot-able copies of Linux Mint and Ubuntu on 2 separate flash drives...

I foresee LOTS of misadventure once I get familiar with these two platforms. Muhuhahahahaha...
