Lucid (10.04) has fixed the bad device.map (got rid of it), fixed the comments mentioning devices on the other oses, and generally has rationalized the hd0 is sda, hd1 is sdb. Unfortunately, the /etc/fstab file now puts / on /dev/sdcx instead of /dev/sdbx (or UUID as in Karmic). Since there is no sdc after the install media has been removed, this is certainly wrong. mtab is OK, using the correct sdbx mounts. Same procedure -- download iso, (on Jaunty) system/administrator/create USB startup disk, reboot from usb startup disk, install to USB hard drive. Avoid messing up the Windows MBR with the advanced button to fix where grub is installed. After the first package update, which got a new kernel, I think the grub.cfg file is now OK with all the correct devices. Only wrong device I can find is in the fstab for / (root).
