obviously you will get an error. the hard disk you have removed contains
important stage files necessary for the grub bootloader. look
into /boot/grub/

to remove grub, just install another bootloader into the mbr. if you keep on
removing the 2nd hard disk which contains linux, you should try installing
XOSL bootloader into a FAT partition of the first hard disk (which contains
windows). just make sure you have grub installed in the mbr of the second
hard disk, as XOSL cant boot linux without grub/lilo.
regarding the manual selection of OS, it depends on the bootloader. for grub,
remove the timeout field from /boot/grub/grub.conf (or /boot/grub/menu.lst).
All bootloaders have this option.
