I will add one more little tidbit in hopes someone here knows a better way...

But with the help of my buddy Sundown reminding me how to get into Early Boot screen where we have HDD options to tinker with (mouse buttons held down at the OS 4.1 splash screen), I was able to finally select the OS from my older HDD and it did boot to it... although 1st attempt all was 640x480 or something.

So I did a 2nd time and this time during boot at uBoot Selector I did select the older OS from the HDD and once that booted up and at the OS 4.1 screen I got into early boot window and selected the older drive to boot from.... the res was right but my docks were all over the place. LOL.

So I was able to get booted to my old OS on the older drive but sloppily.

There must be a better way.

Maybe newer uBoot Selector that when I click 1 or 2 it actually boots from said drive. :D
