Thread: Remove an internal hard drive

-

in brief, i'd remove (and not replace!) internal hard drive.

although sounds painfully easy, have had no luck in doing so, or finding answer in many hours of googling , reading (and tinkering).

looking set of commands and/or files modify remove internal drive.

using fresh install of 9.10 server - i386/32 bit. (i using default grub2.)

fyi, drive mounted /dev/sdf1. formatted xfs; uses lvm(2).

promising things i've tried:
* modified /etc/fstab, commenting out drive
* umount /dev/sdf1

then:
1) turn off machine, unplug drive.
2) restart machine; invariably boot hangs (immediately after hardware initializations) @ "grub loading".

other efforts:
* booted live cd, tinkered system options (went console; tried chrooting in , performing update-grub drive removed etc.)


feedback appreciated!

in advance,
-sonic

more information?
other drives/partitions have you?
root, home etc.
removing drive part of raid setup?
