hello all,
i finally solved my problem by labeling all disks, and started mounting
them with their labels..

hello all,
i had a debian (etch) box, which was booting from a scsi disk.
everything was ok, until i mounted some sata disks on a pci
controller.
Unpredictable, debian "sees" sata disks, before scsi, sometimes..
This causes Debian not to find /dev/sda3 which should be mounted to /
after several reboots, soft and hard, finally initialises scsi disks
first, and mounts root filesystem..
my problem is that i cant reboot it remotely, i have to be there, and
pray for scsi to initialise first..
any suggestions ?
I'll take a guess. I think you need to rebuild the initrd.img so that
the scsi card drivers for the hd load first. Not sure exactly how to do
that though. Sata drives are identified as scsi drives also, not sure if
you can give any scsi ID umbers to a sata disk, but usually you can
assign a disk id of 0 , as a boot disk, on a 'real' scsi drive.
