I have noticed in some distros (namely Ubuntu) that the fstab uses |
| 2 |
UUID's rather than /dev references. Is this a better way? |

|
| 4 |
Does it eliminate the problem of /dev references changing when another |
| 5 |
drive, i.e., an external USB drive, is plugged in? The /dev references |
| 6 |
may change but the UUID's in fstab wouldn't, would they? |
