   I hope someone can point me in the right direction. I have a SuSE 9.3 
   system that was fully configured when I bought it. When looking at fstab 
   the drives are configured as follows:

   /dev/sdb3       /       reiserfs        acl,user_xattr 1 1
   /dev/sdb1       /boot   reiserfs        acl,user_xattr 1 2
   /dev/sda1       /raid   reiserfs        defaults 1 2
   /dev/sdb2       swap    swap    pri=42 0 0

   I downloaded OpenSuSE 10.2 and attempted to upgrade the system. When 
   running either an upgrade or new install it tells me that /dev/sda3 is 
   defined as /dev/sdb3 in fstab.

   Bottom line when I install opensuse 10.2 it sees my raid as sdb and the 
   system is currently setup to have it as sda. I do not understand why my 
   current configuration is the opposite of what a new install is finding. 
   Where do I go from here?

Somewhere between 10.0 and 10.2 they changed the drive layout, so this
may be correct.
