working system, and you install grub on the disk you need a boot loader to
point at the correct disk (usually the same one, but not always!) and off
you go.

The trick is getting that done. As I said earlier (at least I think I did),
the grub install command (grub-install?) refuses, saying something about no
partition found. However, I can mount and read files in the partition, so
that's not exactly true.
