    B--zzzz-T wrong. Grub doesn't care whether a drive is scsi or IDE and
    it calls them both: hdx

    So you may not need to change anything... assuming your partitions look
    the same (are in the same numbering position) as they were.

    You didn't say enough about your config to comment.
