Bug Description
Ubuntu 7.10 (gutsy)
The following commented out grub option still has an effect on the root device which is actually used:
# groot=(hd1,0)
Running update-grub, I get (hd1,0) in all menu.lst root statements. If I change this to (hd0,0), each root is changed to (hd0,0), as if the statement is not commented out at all.
This statement should have no effect whatsoever.

Supposed to work this way, apparently.
