I am looking for advice as to how to move my master boot record. I have
two IDE HDs, hda and hdb. Everything is on hdb - hda isn't even
mounted. However, the MBR is on hda. hda is showing SMART errors on
boot, but I can continue when I hit F1 - and as long as I get a clean
read of the MBR once, I'm up and running. The question is, I want to
pull hda without leaving myself in an unbootable state. The boot loader
is grub. Any suggestions? Thanks.

yours,
