Have you ever considered using either LABELS or UUIDs in fstab? I use |
| 20 |
LABELS for most everything here. To be honest tho, LABELS can be |
| 21 |
duplicated in certain situations. UUIDs are much less likely to have |
| 22 |
that happen and are the better choice. Using either of those means it |
| 23 |
doesn't matter how things are connected, it should still work. If you |
| 24 |
use grub2, I think it uses UUIDs too. I'm not certain but I think it |
| 25 |
does. If it does, booting won't be a problem either. Someone correct |
| 26 |
me if I'm wrong on that tho. |

Just a thought. |
