You may need to re-set-up GRUB. Its method of using HD0 instead of /dev/hda or /dev/sda, etc., counts the available hard drives, rather than steps through the interfaces. i.e. /dev/hdc is /dev/hdc whether or not there's any preceding /dev/hda or /dev/hdb. But a hard drive at /dev/hdc may be HD0 if it's the only drive on the system, but if you inserted a hard drive at /dev/hda it'd become HD0 and the prior HD0 would become HD1. This is as irritating as drive letter shuffling with Windows. Particularly for those of us with removable hard drive caddies. You go through hell if you take out a drive, you have to replace something else to keep the drive allocations in step, or reconfigure GRUB, just to get your system to boot up. -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
