Today i have installed a dual boot, so what have i done, i have a Mainboard Abit AN7 with AMD 2800 and what i had before i started was: 1 x SATA 80 GB (with windows xp pro on it) + 1 x IDE 40GB + 1x IDE 80GB, then i bought a seconde SATA drive of 80 GB and i tried to install Debian Sarge to it, so everything going good untill i want to restart, then grub gave a boot error MBR on wrong drive... So my thing was, only connect the 2 SATA drives so it could only write grub to the MBR of those drives, everything good and well windows working and debian working... Now reconnect the IDE drives and grb would not load... so i think the problem is the MBR on the IDE drives where debian has writen grub to, my question is how can i remove te MBR without loosing the data on those disks...

Is there a solution?
