If mint14 is controlling grub then all you need to do is to delete the mint10 partition. If mint14 is not controlling grub then make sure it is by booting into it and running

Code: Select all

sudo grub-install /dev/sda
Which assumes that sda is the drive that mint 14 is installed on, if it isn't then change the command to the drive it is installed on.

If you don't like the sound of that then try this instead:
