Is there a sure-fire way to know the right 'root (hdx,0)' invocation 
when you are installing grub on the 2nd disk of a raid1 pair when you 
expect the drive id to shift in case the primary drive dies (scsi) or 
when you don't (ide)?  Of course in the IDE case many failure modes will 
make the machine not boot until you remove the dead one, in which case 
you might as well shift it to the primary position anyway, and you'd 
still like it to boot.
