Yes, I tried that and the machine would not boot -
it failed at the point where it was trying to mount one of these partitions.
I had to get out my Knoppix disk, and delete the entries in fstab.

I've wondered if there is some problem with SCSI machines
if one puts in an additional IDE drive?
I've noticed for instance that if I re-install grub,
it calls the IDE disk /dev/hda HD0,
and the scsi drives HD1 and HD2.
I have to edit /grub/device.map to get back to the old arrangement.
