Actually you don't need to do that either. The grub MBR thingie doesn't care which hard drive it's on. When you boot it, it simply starts looking for a stage1 image (which is installed into the /boot partition when you run/install grub) and once it's found, fires up the boot menu according to grub.conf. -- Jani-Matti H�tinen -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
