That's why you sometimes have to fix /boot/grub/device.map yourself. It gets only recreated if you run grub-install with --recheck or directly grub-mkdevicemap. But anyway we use UUIDs in the default grub.cfg so it shouldn't matter how your disks are ordered in device.map The search --set --fs-uuid line sets the root variable to the device with that UUID. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
