GRUB gets drive numbers from the firmware (BIOS/UEFI).       Drive number assigned by the firmware are arbitrary, so do not rely on       them. The only constant seems to be that the boot drive in BIOS mode is       always (hd0).              /dev/sd* names have nothing to do with firmware drive numbers, but they       are not reliably persistent. Do not rely on them either.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
