That's only a start.   Plainly, the /etc/fstab will now be incorrect 
and will have to be altered as well.  Best way might be to run the 
other Linux, mount hda5 and reach in and edit fstab that way.

The best way is still to run only from the partition names as 
installed.  He may have to add dummy partitions or re-organise 
partition order (use only Partition Magic 4.01) to restore things to 
how they were.
