this is how udev encodes / in sysfs as it is not a new dir and kind of special. afair initramfs-tools does the conversion from / to \x2f, so it should not be necessary to use that. anyway newer linux-base should convert you over to UUID and not LABEL. don't know thus if this bug still applies. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
