Summary:  install-grub does not find the root device

Original Submission:  It is possible to specify the root device to the linux kernel as 
a number (and for some reason lilo does this). When it is specified this way (and 
possibly under other circumstances) the kernel would report that rootfs is mounted on 
/ and install-grub script is not able to get the real device mounted on / just by 
scanning the output of df.

afaict the detection of root device by using df is still present in the cvs version of 
the script.
