GRUB sometimes screws up :-(


Drive mapping:

swap = /dev/hda9
/ = /dev/hda5
/boot = /dev/hda1
/usr = /dev/hda6
/var = /dev/hda7


Software-RAID (RAID-1, mirror) mappings:

/boot = /dev/md/0 (ext2)
/ = /dev/md/1 (ext3)
/usr/ = /dev/md/2 (ext3)
/var/ = /dev/md/3 (ext3)
/tmp = /dev/md/4 (ext3)
swap = /dev/md/5 (swap)
