I thought I came to a Linux forum where people solve problems not scrap them. The latter sounds like from a Windoze forum. Some more details. sdb is not mounted but I can easily mount it. Then I'll have two "/" two "/home" etc. This is because sdb is from an old system. The problem is that I'm afraid to reformat sdb because it has a bootable label and sdc as well. So, the first thing I would like to find out is which disk the system boots from: sdb or sdc? The next thing is: If sdb, where is the boot sector? in the master boot sector (outside of the partions of the disk) or in the volume boot sector (inside the first partition of the disk)? If the later I must not reformat the disk. The third question is: How can I move the boot sectors? I would like to move the boot sector to sda and remove boot labels from sdb and sdc. But sdc also hosts Windoze 7? Is that a problem. So, I should change grub, fstab, and what else? And how?
