No, it doesn't break something for me. In fact, on the machine in
question I'm still using lilo (for several reasons) and just carefully
watch the progress of grub.
I just didn't know whether the device.map's device order was important
or not. I noticed the change and thought it could be a good idea to tell
you about this because the former device.map made sense to me while the
current doesn't :)
