Hi everyone.. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Running 2006.0, 2.6.15-r5 kernel |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
1U box, SATA boot drive (sda), and an attached USB drive (in theory, sdb) for on-site backup storage. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Problem is--if the USB drive is plugged into the system when it reboots, the *USB drive* comes up as sda. |
| 8 |

Somehow I doubt changing /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 is going to fix this. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
I doubt using udev rules is going to fix this, either--as, frankly, the system has to be able to boot in order to read them. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Is there any way of getting the USB drive to *not* mount as sda? Ever? :-\ :-/ |

Thanks in advance, |

Best, |
