[NTLUG:Discuss] questions about intalling Grub and MBR

If I have a distro with Grub on the MBR of /dev/sda and then I install a
different distro on /dev/sdb and select to install Grub on the MBR, will
it install to the MBR of /dev/sda or /dev/sdb?

If it installs to the MBR of /dev/sdb then I assume the machine will
boot as before - finding Grub first in the MBR of /dev/sda.

Is this right?

Thanks,

Ed
