Afternoon all on this typical wet Bank Holiday Monday.

I was going to test a new distro which I installed onto an external USB drive. During the install I realised I did not know where the current distro is installed. I decide to install Grub for the distro I was going to test onto dev/sda and I would find out for sure where I had installed grub for the installed distro I am using for when I was ready to uninstall.

Well the need to find out exactly where the day to day distro is installed came a lot sooner than intended as I had issues with the distro I was testing so I want to remove grub I installed for the distro was testing. When I boot up the laptop I am presented with a grub menu to select the installed distro on the internal ssd or the distro I was testing on an external USB Hard drive.

So how do I confirm if I did install grub onto dev/sda for the installed day to day distro. Once I have that information how do I go about updating Grub so I can remove the distro I was testing and just leave the day to day distro please.

Regards

Tim H
