As noted in the install documentation, Linux and HPUX name their
discs differently.  HPUX follows the spec and numbers from 7 down to 0,
Linux follows the PC aberration and numbers from 0 up to 7.  Alan's just
pointed out to me that we have the capability to reverse this.  However,
it's going to change everyone's numbering.  Do we want to switch?
