Grub numbers the HDDs from 0 - n, so hda is hd0 and hdb is hd1 etc. It also
numbers partitions from 0 - n, separates hrd drive nimber and partition
number with a comma, and encloses them in brackets, so instead of hda1, hda2,
hda3 ..., hdb1, hdb2 etc., you get: (hd0,0), (hd0,1), (hd0,2) ... , (hd1,0),
(hd1,1), (hd1,2) etc.
