My guess is that the wrapper script didn't work correctly for two
disks. I actually tried something similar using RHEL5/Xen
3.4.1/drbd83, but found out drbd's block-drbd didn't work properly
with pygrub. Perhaps there are more files to edit, I'm not sure. I
ended up making the resource primary on both nodes and use
phy:/dev/drbd/by-res/...
