Edit /etc/fstab to have a line like so:

Usually not required on modern Linux distributions that use the
filesystem labelling feature of ext2/ext3. Instead, do something like:
e2label /dev/hda4 /var
e2label /dev/hdaX oldvar
(hdaX being your old /var)
and just make sure that your fstab uses labels rather than raw
device names.
I haven't had to deal with any such situation so am curious. What
would happen if you had two hard drives with two installations of
lets say RHL that uses filesystem labels and you plug both the HDDs
on the same machine?
How would the booting copy of RHL deal with duplicate /var or / or
any of those labels on the two hard drives?
