There is also by-label, which you can reference from fstab like |
14 |
|
15 |
LABEL=foobar /home ext4 defaults ... |
16 |
|
17 |
If predictability and readability is the goal, I think using labels is |
18 |
the best option, because you have complete control over them, unlike the |
19 |
device IDs. For example: |
20 |
|
21 |
LABEL=my-machine-home-part /home ext4 defaults ... |
22 |
|
23 |
This doesn't solve your underlying timing problem, of course. Just apropos. |
