I am still intrigued by the idea of an iso file having a UUID when it's written directly to a USB disk though. I didn't think that happened. I don't have a USB stick to hand right now and my searches as to whether ISO images have UUIDs have not proven conclusive as of yet. I must admit it's been ages since I looked into the details of iso images so perhaps I was mistaken in saying they would not have a UUID. If they can/do have a UUID then perhaps they can also have a label, which may help if the device id method doesn't suit you. Ultimately though, you are probably constrained by the info that appears in /dev/disk/by-* as that is what Linux tools will be using for mounting. So that's the place to look to see what your options are. Thanks, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
