Hi folks:

I added an IDE RAID controller and a second hard drive to my Red Hat 9 system, which moved the hard drive from hda to hdg. I found a couple of places where I needed to change the (HD0,0) definition, such as /boot/grub/device.map and /etc/sysconfig/grub. However, I must have missed one somewhere. During the boot process, /boot fails to remount in rw mode after unmounting, reporting that it is busy. If I bring the system up in single user mode, mount /boot manually, and change to init 5, everything works properly. In fact, I am writing this on the system having this problem, playing "The Two Towers" DVD in mplayer and running Netscape and evolution with two terminals in the background. The system is solid after this initial problem has been bypassed. So, can anyone tell me where the configuration file is that I missed that is causing this error?

Looking /etc/fstab, and /etc/grub.conf (or lilo.conf if your using lilo) for references to /dev/hda.


PS- Or you could try adding ide=reverse to the kernel options you boot with. That should make hde into hda;-)
