I'm still not clear on what happens when boot isn't succesful. Do you
get error messages from grub? If so, what do they say?
Also note that while my menu.lst works fine and lets me boot from both
drives, I haven't tested disconnecting one. I know where my data is, and
my backup, and in case of trouble, I can (and have tested that I can)
boot from a Knoppix-cd.
Kind regards,
Jurriaan
