Bug 309040 and Bug 304657 was recently closed for a similar problem to this and
the one remaining issue was the IDE-SATA renaming issue which was transferred
to this bug. During the troubleshooting, I found If the IDE drive is left
online, you can expect the MBR of the new installation to be written on the IDE
drive while the
installed files and /boot and /grub will be written on the SATA
devices. The SATA device starts out as SDAn but at the time of the
reboot/MBR update, the IDE drive becomes SDAn and the SATA drive becomes
SDBn. I guess you can see the problem that results. If the IDE drive
contains Windows, then Windows gets hosed, In my case, it was an older version
of SuSE not part of the MD raid installation. So, part of the problem is the
timing of the ranaming and the fact the bootloader is written after the
renaming is effected onto the devices that were modified with new installation
files using the old names. It gets worse, but it should give you a start.
