It's shutting down normally and the uname -r came back 3.2.0-21-generic...
....let's look at this again.
I wiped two partitions and expanded the two remaining ones(my Precise partition was getting too small for my liking), reinstalled Grub2 and I'm still getting checks on bootups. I'm getting a message that a UUID is not ready and then it boots boots fine after that.
I suspect it's from the install on /dev/sda, and Here's what I noticed in boot info script and I've bolded a few things:
Boot Info Script 0.61 [1 April 2012]
============================= Boot Info Summary: ===============================
=> Grub2 (v1.97-1.98) is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks at sector
1 of the same hard drive for core.img. core.img is at this location and
looks in partition 9 for /boot/grub.
=> Grub2 (v1.99) is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdb and looks at sector 1 of
the same hard drive for core.img. core.img is at this location and looks
for (,msdos6)/boot/grub on this drive.

Look at the highlighted parts and the UUID's. I think it's pulling configurations from both drives, which might explain the older menuentries, the double entries and possibly my problem with disk checks. If I can catch the UUID number that's not ready before login, I could pin down what's writing it and I'd really rather not spend the time looking for the culprit ](*,)
So how can I rid /dev/sda of Grub/Grub2 so I can reinstall it on sdb?
