I said that a bug report would be sent regarding the new F7 moving
partition designators. This is it:

I hope the bug killers are cleverer than me,
as I don't understand your bug:
--------------------------------
Description of problem:Partition designators change with changes in
hard drive use. I have 2 hard drives. When hd1 is booted the Linux is
/dev/sda. When hd2 is selected the Linux is /dev/sda.
--------------------------------
1. What do you mean by "hd1 is booted", "hd2 is selected"?
How exactly do you select hd2?
2. What do you mean by "the Linux"?
As you say I am a lot more involved than you are. You don't even know
it happens I guess.
Nobody knows how it happens because you didn't fill in the steps to
reproduce. Does it take a bios setting change to make this happen, or
will it happen if you keep all your /boot partitions on the same primary
drive with grub in the mbr (setting the kernel root to another drive),
or are you chainloading a 2nd grub install on the other drive?
I'd expect the first method to keep things consistent other than when
the device name conventions change among kernel versions.
