I've recently in installed mint 17 on my pc.$ parted -lModel: ATA PLEXTOR PX-256M5 (scsi)Disk /dev/sda: 256GBSector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096BPartition Table: msdosNumber  Start   End    Size   Type      File system  Flags 1      1049kB  256MB  255MB  primary   ext2         boot 2      257MB   256GB  256GB  extended 5      257MB   256GB  256GB  logical                lvmModel: ATA SAMSUNG HD103SJ (scsi)Disk /dev/sdb: 1000GBSector size (logical/physical): 512B/512BPartition Table: msdosNumber  Start   End     Size    Type     File system  Flags 1      32.3kB  1000GB  1000GB  primary  ext3Model: Linux device-mapper (linear) (dm)Disk /dev/mapper/mint--vg-root: 252GBSector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096BPartition Table: loopNumber  Start  End    Size   File system  Flags 1      0.00B  252GB  252GB  ext4Model: Linux device-mapper (linear) (dm)Disk /dev/mapper/mint--vg-swap_1: 4291MBSector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096BPartition Table: loopNumber  Start  End     Size    File system     Flags 1      0.00B  4291MB  4291MB  linux-swap(v1)The ATA PLEXTOR PX-256M5 disk did have windows 8 on it at before but it's been reformatted and should be completely gone, it now has the linux mint install on it.The TA SAMSUNG HD103SJ disk did have windows 7 on it so I suspect it is something to do with this disk. Mint automatically mounts this disk (it doesn't have an fstab entry).I've successfully manually created just a partition on the disk using fdisk and then mkfs, but when I restart my pc I still see the windows 7 option.Can anyone tell me what I am missing?
Why is grub showing a windows 7 option?
