Ok. That works fine in the BIOS boot mode - I think there ought to be a warning though! I didn't expect that kind of behaviour - and was surprised by it. However, yesterday, I spent a long time experimenting with EFI install to my spare drive. The components of grub are installed to sdc, but sda holds the pointer to it in a specific sector. Out of five installs, only one of them would boot. All the rest gave the grub error (from sda boot) "error - no such device" - followed by a UUID. I assume that the UUID quoted is meant to be the UUID of the FAT32 EFI partition on sdc. I checked that, and it was not the same. If the BIOS boot is meant to be working as it does, I have to accept that, but the EFI boot system does seem to have a problem!
