Yes but at least the first stage of booting is typically handled by grub, and I don't remember seeing a solution to keeping the grub disk designations stable as drives come and go.
Curious if anyone else has?
You mean (hd0) pointing to different device? # cat /boot/grub/device.map (fd0) /dev/fd0 (hd1) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_<...1> (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_<...2> I don't see problem. The /boot/grub/menu.lst has /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_<...1> and /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_<...2> entries. If it would be label used syntax is different, but still it seems that it works fine. It could that openSUSE grub is patched to allow this kind of naming. -- Regards, Rajko http://news.opensuse.org/category/people-of-opensuse/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
