Hi,

Recent udev packges in squeeze/sid lack vol_id command since 22 Aug 2009
(146-1).  What is the best way to obtain UUID of partition?

I could read it like ...

$ ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid|grep sda4

Is this the best way?  Any thoughts ?

man -k uuid

will *not* find the blkid man page )-:.

Also, how does one set the UUID of a currently in use swap partition (such as one created before the mkswap command added a UUID by default) *without* re-running mkswap?
