Unless, in its infinite wisdom of not identifying devices in BIOS order, Grub 
also decided to identify devices as whatever type it chooses rather than what 
they are.  It could have "identified" the RAID controller connected CD/DVD as a 
hard drive even though it wasn't and choose to try updating that MBR.

For the record, FreeDOS still will not boot once KUbuntu is installed.  I even 
cannibalized my machine down to one physical SATA drive and Grub STILL luggies 
up C: as far as FreeDOS is concerned....
