block? dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb doesnt do it
don't use dd for that. set up a raid-1 mirror instead. it's easy to do, only
about 5

Hello,
does anyone know how to fix the device name on a debian linux
system? For example. If i have two IDE hardisks, the devices will
be named like this.
/dev/hda
/dev/hdb
If i now must remove the first harddisk (/dev/hda) the second (/dev/hdb)
will be renamed to (/dev/hda)

/dev/hd? ARE the raw devices.

In the bsdish slang, raw devices are character devices, so /dev/hd? are
not exactly raw devices, but block devices.
Not only in bsdish slang. Most other Unix boxes

that's EXACTLY what linux does for IDE drives. the slave drive on the
primary
IDE controller will *always* be /dev/hdb, regardless of whether
the ordering of IDE drives is dependant upon master/slave. IE /dev/hda is
ALWAYS the master on the first IDE controller, /dev/hdb is ALWAYS the slave
on the first IDE controller. If your drives are shifting around that's
something else doing it.
With IDE you're kinda screwed. With SCSI
