I used to have two iMacs running Lion connected to each other via Firewire.

On starting up a computer, two icons representing both computers would appear. I would select one and type in the password.

Now I have sold one of the computers but both icons still appear on start-up, requiring me to choose one.

How do I eliminate the unnecessary start-up icon?

Could you possibly take a picture of the selection screen? – eyemyth Oct 25 '11 at 0:27
Yes please post a picture - I'm quite curious as to how you were "selecting a machine" as opposed to just booting one iMac and connecting to the other one via Firewire Target Disk Mode. – canderson Oct 25 '11 at 1:54
Or do you have two bootable partitions (Bootcamp maybe) on your Mac? – patrix♦ Oct 25 '11 at 5:29
