Any help? > thanks Change the name of your disk to wd1. To do that: Comment out the old line for wd1 in your kernel config file. Change the line that defines wd2 to wd1 (change just the name of the device,don't change anything else). Change all references in /etc/fstab to wd1 instead of wd2. This will have the effect of your second disk being called wd1 instead of wd2.
