I'm researching a boot sequence for a cluster and either the answer is so obvious that I'm reading right past it or I can't find the answer.
I have a blade-system cluster of CPUs that share a SAN of fibre channel disks. Once I can get booted to a kernel and load my initrd, I can discover everything I need to know to mount the SAN storage for "this" CPU. The mental roadblock I have is that the BIOS device numbers in the SAN are dynamic and can change from boot to boot. I'd like to install and maintain the boot loader and boot partition on only two disks, rather than all of them. I read in an earlier message[1] that GRUB will "guess" the drive number if the stage2 loader is on the same drive it boots from. Will this get me to the kernel and initrd that are on the same drive as well?
