Hi Robin,

Yahoo truncated most of the email so I'll just try to
answer your specific question.

Yes, I've tested this by removing the first drive and
writing grub to the MBR of the second drive and it did
work fine, although when putting the first drive back
in there then I had the issue with two MBR's which got
things a little confused.

Basically, what I learnt from that saga is that grub
should only reside on one drive.

Michael.
