I have not tried it, but I can imagine the following can happen: Depending on the order of devices a disk may come after the first cdrom. So a disk 'sdb' in the guest may become 'sdc' in the guest. If one does a chroot into the guest to do some fixup _and_ if something within that guest is configured to use kernel device names (like sdb) instead of LABEL/UUID then failures can occur. So its just about providing some correctness in virt-rescue.
