*Hi Colin,

What I mean is when my system boots up, it shows me all of my drives, 
which gives me the option to choose which one to bootup, may it be 
WINDOZE drive or my Linux drive...

Yes I currently boot off of my master drive and it is Ubuntu 10.4...

Like I said it shows up in the bios, telling me that the drive is there, 
but I want it too show up in the menu.lst I think that is what comes up 
when booting...I would have to do a reboot to make sure if that is what 
it is called...

Now I did have a smaller hard drive which had windows xp on it, so when 
I booted up, I have the choice to either start XP or Linux, now I want 
it to be able too do the samething as it did before...But now since I 
have replaced that drive, I am sure that the uuid needs to be changed 
and what ever else that needs to be done for it to show up when I boot...

Hope that I have not confused you Colin...

Thanks for the reply...

Larry
