Just thinking about it. I thought IDE HDD's were always recognised as 
/dev/hd<x>. But liveCD (in fact any boot program I use) is recognising this one 
as /dev/sda.

What's going on there?

This changed some time back (I can't recall the specifics, but it was in a 2.6.something kernel). All HDDs are now recognied as /dev/sd<x>, irregardless of their connection type.
