Re: Accessing a 3rd HDD under grub



Messed up, huh?  No 3rd plug.  There is a power supply but no connector.

Hi.
 A friend's computer died, and she'd like to retrieve her files.
 Before setting up my dual-boot system this would have been a piece of
 cake.  Now, though, if I replace the Windows drive, it can't boot, and
 if I replace the Linux drive it reads the MBR but can't reach the GRUB
 options.
 Is there a way to temporarily deactivate GRUB's changes to the MBR, so
 I can boot from my Windows drive and access a different slave HDD?

Thanks.
 Chuckk
