Why it is so ? Maybe this bug? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=501768 A real PITA for me. I had created a new boot partition by splitting an existing paritition, and used whatever partition number I could, so ended up with partitions out of order. Plus, one of my partitions could not even be read by parted (or maybe it was cfdisk ...). Run fdisk -l /dev/sdN on you drives, and see if you get a "Partition table entries are not in disk order". Re-numbering partitions sounds like it should be fairly easy, but because (I assume) of the cylinder/head setup, it might be impossible to exactly map to specific start and end blocks!
