I agree with Canek. The only reason I switched to grub2 is that |
| 6 |
I have an outboard docking station that I don't always power on. |

That causes the BIOS to change the order of the drives when I |
| 9 |
reboot with the docking station powered up, and then the kernel |
| 10 |
can't find the boot drive. Very silly problem, really, and |
| 11 |
maybe this particular BIOS is dumber than most, dunno. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
But grub2 can search for the boot drive based on the disk label |
| 14 |
or UUID, so that particular problem is gone now. |
