Even better, edit /etc/fstab to refer to partitions by UUID instead of 
device name if it doesn't already.  The various drives don't always 
respond to probing in the same order (No, I don't know why.) meaning 
that the numbering might change from one boot to the next, but the UUID 
remains stable.
