The part that says root (hd0,0) tells grub where to find the boot partition. This has to be a physical partition, like sda1. In the above example, hd0,0 means the first partition of the first physical drive.
What is the difference between SDA and HDA in Linux?
The term sd stands for SCSI disk, that is to say, it means Small Computer System Interface disk. So, sda means the first SCSI hard disk. Likewise,/hda, the individual partition in the disk takes names as sda1, sda2, etc.. The second hard disk will have the name /dev/sdb with the same numeric expressions.

So, hd0 would be sda and hd1 would be sdb. it is not possible : wrong answer. If you have ide card to plug sdaX, it is not true anymore. Is there a code/ command line to check it ?? OK, I will leave that as you wish.
How do I find out what drive grub is on?
You can ask Grub, at bootup or from a terminal window. At the boot menu press c then ask, the command is find /boot/grub/menu.lst and Grub will tell you what drive Grub is on. And yes I believe as of kernel-2.6.20 all devices are seen as sd- except floppy drives. Last edited by mrrangerman; 05-04-2008 at 05:55 AM.
Which is the Zip drive HD0 or HD1?
If you have an older machine with a Zip drive the names can change under grub. On my machine the first IDE drive is hd0, the fakeraid card is hd1, unless the zip drive is active (with a cassette in it) on the second IDE channel, in which case the zip is hd1 and the fakeraid card is hd2.
