[gentoo-user] Grub and device name

[Jacques Montier]

Hi all,

I noticed a strange thing.
I have a 250 Go M4 Crucial SSD on the first drive and 1To SATA HDD on the
second one.
Then, i switched to AHCI BIOS mode, then my device names were inverted (SSD
as sdb and HDD as sda)
It was not a problem as i use UUIDs.
With a live CD as SysRescueCD, grub (LEGACY) sees the SSD as hd1 ; i write
to SSD mbr with setup (hd1). So it's ok.
Now, if i want to boot Gentoo Desktop, i have to put hd0 in
/boot/grub/grub.conf
Have you an explanation about this behaviour ?

Thanks in advance

Cheers,
