So far as I can tell, each version of Kickstart has two device names:
The device name of the boot drive, and the device name of the drive it
will ignore. (I.e., WB_2.x will be ignored by 1.3 ...)
So, all you have to do is change the name of the drive you want to change.
However, make *sure* that the name of the drive it will boot from matches
the name of the boot partition.

And of *course* it worked until a cold boot - Kickstart stays loaded until
a cold boot.
