Hi Erich looking at http://bering-uclibc.zetam.org/wiki/Bering-uClibc_5.x_-_User_Guide_-_Basic_Configuration_-_LEAF_Packages#Configuring_syslinux.cfg_or_isolinux.cfg I read For advanced users there is an alternative syntax for LEAFCFG which can reference disks by a persistent block device name - either the file system LABEL or the UUID. This borrows the syntax from other Linux distributions. For example: LEAFCFG=LABEL=LEAFBUC:vfat would use the disk with the DOS filesystem label "LEAFBUC", or LEAFCFG=UUID=3290c629-123e-4c44-b79b-1c71e312a079 (since the filesystem type is optional). Note that this facility is not supported by default since the extra utilities needed to identify devices in this way are not included in the standard initrd.lrp files, and most users prefer a smaller initrd.lrp. However, it is possible to enable this behaviour by following the instructions for Modifying initrd.lrp and adding the following files from hdsupp.lrp: /sbin/findfs /lib/libblkid.so.1.1.0 and its symbolic links /lib/libuuid.so.1.3.0 and its symbolic links It is marked as an feature "for advanced users" and never has been enabled in busybox, but as part of hdsupp.lrp, which means not having findfs in busybox, does not allow a judgement if the code snippet in linuxrc is used or not. I suggest to keep it, and probably to enhance our basic system to enable this feature by default. kp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ leaf-devel mailing list leaf-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
