Nope, the disks are laid out as follows:

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hde2             19489292   3068196  15431092  17% /
/dev/hdf2             38339448  26231660  10160232  73% /home
none                    192348         0    192348   0% /dev/shm

I also tried it with --root-directory=/boot  - Is that the correct way
to call it?

Would making /boot on /dev/sda1 do the trick?
