Thanks, so I did not do anything wrong. Of course given that the data is
still there it seems I was at least careful enough ;)

Of course that system is again running production and I guess to reproduce
the problem I had to switch disks once again. I guess the real problem
was that /dev/hdb1 became /dev/hda1 after removing the old disk. 

I'll try to reproduce the problem at my home machine but I can't promise 
anything.
