That should read "...and the boot order of the bios is set to s-ata first and
then p-ata".

The result of this assumption is that the device.map is created with
(hd0) /dev/hda
(hd1) /dev/sda

but it really is the other way around. I guess this problem is not too common
because it require people to activly change the bios boot ordering.
