I'm having a job parsing this sentence, but are you referring here to the partitions' UUIDs? These are chosen at random when partitions are created and it helps to make a note of them as they are entirely unmemorable. (I use LABELs everywhere that's possible for that reason.) You can see these UUIDs in ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ and in the contents of /run/udev/data/b8:... Also see man tune2fs.
