You can use alternative drives and partitions names created by udev: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
/dev/disk/by-id/* - named by drive model and serial number |
| 10 |
for example /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SAMSUNG_SP0411N_S01JJ10L437449-part3 |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
/dev/disk/by-path/* - named by device address on subseqeuent buses, |
| 13 |
for example /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:00:0d.0-ide-0:0-part1 |
