Agreed, the reason I did this was that for some reason the grub on the
secondary disk was taking priority over the first disk. I have no idea
why this was happening. I thought there ought to be some setting in the
BIOS to change which disk was used to boot, but my BIOS only had one
option 'Hard Disk' in the boot order configuration; there was no way to
specify which hard disk was used to boot.
