this is infamous change which was reguired by udev (/dev/mapper/xyz is now symlink to /dev/dm-X node) HAL cat translate it to real name: - with recent kernel (I think >2.6.31, not sure now) you can simple read /sys/block/dm-X/dm/name also DM UUID should start with CRYPT-TEMP-* inside udev rule it should have defined in some variable also (DM_NAME, DM_UUID) There is similar code in util-linux-ng (mount) which prefers /dev/mapper name before displaying /dev/dm-X. I think using /sys/blocks/*/dm/name is simple - if you can ignore old kernels:) Milan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
