Problem, you didn't make enough devices.
Now you say, well I'll use use /dev/sda to point to it.
Now I hand you another hdd.. So you put in on ctrler 2.. Ohohhh.. No more
boot..
Okay, so you now point to /dev/sdb.. That drive I just gave you was crap
and died.. You remove it and reboot.. Oh ohh... Doesn't boot again..
Damn, Linux sure is fragile!
