Given how much trouble it was getting grub2 to cooperate (for some |
| 13 |
reason device.map was missing, and grub-install --recheck didn't rebuild |
| 14 |
it) I really don't want to mess with it again trying to get labels to work. |

Actually, grub2 refused to use UUIDs in the grub2-mkconfig script, even |
| 17 |
when I explicitly told it to via /etc/default/grub. |

I wound up having to use the PARTUUID for the root= line or the system |
| 20 |
would not boot (manually, vy forcing it in /etc/default/grub.) |

Oddly enough, it was only one machine out of seven so far that's had |
| 23 |
this weird udev "I'm gonna swap /dev/sda for /dev/sdf for no discernable |
| 24 |
reason" problem. |
