Ok, I got that, thanks. Ran it and it does look like there's a remnant of the old 6.0 system that lived on that drive at one time. So, how to *wipe* the MBR for that drive without losing everything on it? :-) Is there a way? 'Cause face it, if I get rid of the boot record on the drive, grub won't see it anymore even without my disabling the probe script. :-) --Dave
