NoOp,  I've done a screenshot of gparted for both hda and hdb and they 
are attached here.


The output of "find /boot/grub/stage1" in grub is "hd1,4"

Looking at gparted I can see that somewhere during one upgrade or 
another I've lost the mount point for /dev/hdb1, it's supposed to be my 
/boot partition. Somehow I have a boot directory on /dev/hda5. Maybe I 
need to do some cleanup and get my boot partition working.
