Hi Emilio, Actually the fstab is using LABEL rather than physical device names. I described the devices as sdx in my email as the LABELs / is probably not that meaningful to describe the different devices. Maybe a wrong assumption. The error seems to me is referring to a problem in locating the grub.conf file. But thought the grub-install command is the one to reset it, is it not?
