Ok, I tried it. It seems to be as follows: When the computer boots, grub thinks that hd0 is the the drive that was booted (the same drive on which it is installed). /dev/hd* are mapped according to what you described. After I login, it seems that the order is synchronized with the order of the /dev/hd*. This created quite a mess for me, but fortunately grub has a good command line support. Indeed, much better than lilo :-). Anyway, thanks again. Moshe > > -- > Jani-Matti Hהtinen > > > -- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
