Hi,
I have a question about uninstalling UU2.5 off of a drive. What would be the easiest / safest way to uninstall 2.5? I currently have the following drives w/ OSs.
Hdd 1 - Vista 64 bit (yes, I know)
Hdd 2 - UU2.2 64 bit (works great)
Hdd 3 - UU2.5 64 bit (basic setup)
The grub bootloader from 2.5 (I think is on drive 1 w/ the Vista OS). I currently have a triple boot. I can select to go into any of the three drives. If I decide to get rid of the UU2.5 off of Hdd 3, what would be the best way to do so, and can I have my old boot grub from 2.2 back?
I forgot to create a /home partition when I installed UU2.5. I would like to go back and reinstall 2.5 w/ the /home partition. I really like the UU2.5. I didn't get sound to work yet, but that is a separate issue.
Once I get UU2.5 up and running, I would like to try to mimic what's on 2.2 and have it on 2.5. Is there a way to create a list of what's on 2.2, send it to 2.5 and update / install those programs?
Thanks,

Edited:
Would it behove me to do the following after reading up on other linux forums:
1) delete UU2.5 via Windows Vista ( I did not use wubi btw)
or
2) reformat the drive w/ UU2.5
then
3) use the windows vista cd to fix the mbr -- bootrec.exe/fixboot , then bootrec.exe/fixmbr
4) Reboot to see if the mbr is fixed
5) use the UU2.2 cd to reinstall the grub
