Have a very strange problem. Disk 0 in windows becomes Device sdb in Linux, and Device sda in Linux becomes Disk 1 in Windows. What controls the disk/device order? Motherboard firmware? Grub2 entries? /etc/fstab? http://goo.gl/TfDrGU

Maybe I should clarify that I do not really care if the device is called sdb or sda as long as it is persisitant. On the same GPT disk (usually booting as sdb) I have three Linux partitions: Kubuntu 16.04 and Mint 17.3 KDE and openSUSE Leap42.1, plus Windows 10. At times Linux boot as sda, which creates problems, as all my shortcuts and mount entries in /etc/fstab are based on booting as sdbx, or in the case of Leap 42.1, would stalls booting completely. What can I do to stop this unwanted change?
