iTunes - where does it get it's Library info?

I switched drives for my OS X install, and for some reason some of the songs in my iTunes Music Library.xml file are referencing my old drive. I went in through the shell with vi and did a global replace to put in the new drive info. No prob. Upon quitting iTunes the next time I open it, the file is reset to the old drive into. Where is iTunes getting this from? Very irritating. I tried renaming the file iTunes 3 Music Library, but no change.

Thanks.
