NOT if you do not let it during the install process.
Anaconda will let you specify where to install grub.
Assuming your end disk is seen by Anaconda as /dev/sdb
then one of the final stages of Anacond will ask you
where you want grub to be installed. Be sure to select
/dev/sdb.
So, when you press F12, you will be able to boot from
2nd disk.

Good luck.
