root=UUID lines are normally interpreted by the initramfs to find the |
| 11 |
right device to mount. If you don't use one, the kernel pretty much only |
| 12 |
supports root=/dev/<name> or root=PARTUUID identifiers (check kernel |
| 13 |
source file init/do_mounts.c:182,207 for details). |

You can find your PARTUUID using `blkid` or `lsblk -o +PARTUUID`. |
