To avoid these kinds of pitfalls I usually only specify UUID's for mdadm to assemble, not device-names. Mount can also work with partition UUID's if you are not using something like devicemapper or md in between that has a static device name scheme. Beware that you may need a fairly modern initramfs/initrd setup to get all this to work cleanly, especially if the root device is involved. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
