hardware raid
I've have an ide raid card, "sideraid 100 version 1.3". 20Gbytes disk on the primary and secondary IDE bus. when I've booted up my Linux box, it changed my hda drives too hdh, why? Here's the layout from fdiks:
Disk /dev/hdh: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2501 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdh1 * 1 7 56196 83 Linux
/dev/hdh2 8 2435 19502910 83 Linux
/dev/hdh3 2436 2501 530145 82 Linux swap
Disk /dev/hdf: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2501 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdf1 1 2501 20089251 fd Linux raid autodetect
Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 7294 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 1 4 32098+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 * 5 769 6144862+ b Win95 FAT32
/dev/hda3 770 7144 51207187+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda4 7145 7294 1204875 82 Linux swap
If you noticed my boot is on /dev/hda2, which mean if I want to convert the boat loader from lilo to grub I would not be able to bec. grub-install will be looking for the boot sector which is on /dev/hda2? how do make it so that doing a df will show /dev/hda instead of /dev/hdh? Thanks.

Re: hardware raid
All,
I've figured it out. It was a silly mistake. Sorry for wasting any one's time. Thanks.
