I don't. I suppose each drive has it's own MBR. The bios on my machine
has a built in boot loader that I use to pick which drive I want to boot
from directly. Right now the bios is set to use hda as the default drive
[ Kubuntu ]. If I want to boot directly into XP I can choose the sdb
drive and boot directly into XP. For OpenSuSE I choose sda. OR, I can
just let it boot to hda and choose which one in Grub. If I don't make a
choice in Grub it boots Kubuntu.


If I had installed Kubuntu with the other drives disconnected I would
have to use the built in boot loader to choose. Grub wouldn't be
configured to boot anything but Kubuntu.
