Let me go out on a limb. If the grub.conf that is active is really on sda, but the /etc/grub.conf on sdb is really a soft link to the /boot/grub.conf on sda, I can't see why an update of the kernel when you are running the operating system on sdb would n not correctly update grub.conf. -- ======================================================================= "All Bibles areise an interesting question man-made." -- Thomas Edison ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
