The file /etc/fstab contains mounting information for partitions; edit this file as root ans comment out any lines that refer to partitions on this disk.
Remember: hda or sda is the master disk on the first controller, hdb or sdb is the slave disk on that controller, and hdc/sdc and hdd/sdd are the master and slave on the second controller. That should allow you to recognise the name of the drive you're taking out.
