--- Begin Message ---Package: grub-common Version: 2.06-8 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system Dear Maintainer, After upgrading to latest version of grub-common and kernel, the system wouldn't boot up with the latest kernel. The device paths changed, sda1 to sdb1. I noticed that the grub config changed to use UUIDs, however /etc/default/grub is set to use LABELS. Which is something I prefer to do. It seems that grub-mkinfo no longer supports the GRUB_ENABLE_LINUX_LABEL parameters and has to be re-written for it to work. There's a patch in #568084, but I'm not entirely sure it'll work. And I don't want to use UUIDs at all. Thank you.

It may be related with >the kernel and not grub, perhaps? :S You should go and read about UUIDs - it's entirely expected and common for devices to change name (sda/sdb etc.) at each boot. On many systems the ordering of devices is not deterministic, and this is *exactly* why UUIDs (or other reliable names like MD or LVM devices) are recommended. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
