bodinux (lbtemp) wrote : disk order changed, evms_activate fix didn't work on breezy upgrade

I have a pci IDE card in my computer.
Before the upgrade from Breezy to Dapper my disks would be numbered :
mother board ide 0 : hda
mother board ide 1 : hdb
pci ide 0 : hde

With the new kernel :
pci ide 0 : hda
mother board ide 0 : hde
mother board ide 1 : hdf

Even after using the 'evms_activate' fix, the pc wouldn't find the correct root filesystem due to the disk order change.

My fixes :
Bad fix : use the older kernel
Good fix : forget the upgrade, install again from the live cd

I would rather have the old order of my disks because now I can't remove the pci ide card without disturbing the whole system.
