Have you considered unplugging the drives, and re-plugging them in the opposite order? Of course that may entail fiddling with grub so drive 2 is drive 1, so to speak. An alternative is to leave the bootloader as it is, use it to boot the second drive with the OS, and simply use the rest of that drive for your data, etc. Proportionally speaking, the boot partition ought to small enough to not worry too much over. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list.
