PCs are only meant to boot from the first hard drive. Grub does some kind of magic that I don't fully understand to convince the BIOS to pretend that the second hard drive is the first and vice versa. If that doesn't get through to pbs/pbslba or gets through the wrong way, then pbs/pbslba could easily end up looking at the wrong disk for the 9fat partition. Russ
