Another problem is that a lot of BIOSes actually remap themselves if
the boot disk isn't the first; so you often need "(hd0,N)" even if
you're on /dev/sdb or higher; I bump into this one almost every time I
install or update on this machine where /dev/sda is PATA and /dev/sdb
is SATA (and used to end up as /dev/sdd when I had a couple more old
IDE drives in here). The BIOS says it's (hd0,0) to boot, grub kept
getting told (hd3,0) by anaconda.
